Summary
Zane Grey Continuation is a Los Angeles Unified high school in Reseda, California, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 77 students. In 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism was 91%, compared with 23% in Los Angeles Unified and 18% statewide; graduation was 59%, versus 90% in the district and 88% statewide. The most pressing concern is the combination of exceptionally high absenteeism and low graduation.
Test proficiency is also far below district and state results in every subject: in 2025–2026, 8% of students were proficient in English language arts, compared with 49% statewide and 48% in the district; math and science proficiency were both 0%, versus 38% and 36% statewide. Among four nearby same-district schools with all-grades scores, average proficiency was 45% in English, 17% in math, and 21% in science. Zane Grey’s English result was especially low compared with that local average, while math was its weakest result overall. The 11th-grade results show a similar pattern: English proficiency was 8%, compared with 57% statewide and 56% in the district, and math was 0%. The 11th-grade math result tied Independence Continuation and was below the other nearby reported results.
Results have not improved consistently: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, English proficiency fell from 18% to 8%, math remained at 0%, and science fell from 6% to 0%, while state results rose in all three subjects. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking dropped from the 14th percentile and 1 star in 2024–2025 to the 3rd percentile and 0 stars in 2025–2026, the lowest rank among nearby schools with a reported ranking. Its ranking for Hispanic students also fell sharply, from the 22nd percentile to the 3rd, indicating a decline in SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves that group. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 15.2, below the nearby-school average of 18; that year, 58% of students were directly certified for free meals, and the data indicate the school likely provides free meals to all students through Community Eligibility. The school enrolls 77 students, so percentages may reflect small tested groups; 11th- and 12th-grade science results are suppressed.
