Summary

Zane Grey Continuation is a very small, alternative public high school serving 77 students in grades 9-12 in Reseda, California, designed for students who have faced significant challenges in traditional school settings.

The school faces profound difficulties, with academic performance consistently ranking among the lowest in the state and a staggering 93.3% of students chronically absent, which is nearly five times the state average and a fundamental barrier to learning. Graduation rates are volatile and very low at 51.1%, and the school spends over $31,000 per student—significantly more than many nearby schools—without corresponding positive outcomes. A particularly striking finding is that the school shares an address with Reseda Charter High, yet the two schools have dramatically different results, highlighting how different models in the same community can yield different outcomes.

When compared to other local options, the challenges become clearer. Other continuation schools like John R. Wooden High and Independence Continuation face similar struggles, but some, like High Technical LA and Birmingham Community Charter High, serve high-need populations within the High Technical LA District and Birmingham Community Charter High District with much stronger academic results and far lower absenteeism. This suggests that for students needing an alternative path, exploring the various school models within the broader Los Angeles Unified area and neighboring districts is crucial.
