Summary

Evergreen Continuation is a very small, alternative public high school serving 67 students in grades 9-12 within the Los Angeles Unified district in Sylmar, CA, designed for students who have struggled in traditional high school settings.

The school serves a high-needs population and faces significant challenges, most notably a chronic absenteeism rate of over 80%, which is more than triple the district average and severely impacts learning. While its academic proficiency scores are very low compared to nearby high-performing options like PUC Lakeview Charter High or Sylmar Biotech Health and Engineering Magnet, its core mission is different: to help credit-deficient students graduate. Its recent graduation rate of 77.8% shows meaningful success for students at extreme risk of dropping out.

It's important to view Evergreen through the lens of its alternative role. With high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, it provides intensive, last-chance support. Its performance is volatile due to its small size, but the improving graduation rate suggests it is effectively serving its specific mission within a competitive local landscape of schools.
