Summary

Joseph A. Gregori High is a large public high school serving grades 9-12 with about 2,350 students in the Modesto City High district, known for its exceptionally high graduation rate and very low dropout numbers.

When compared to other schools in its district, Gregori holds a strong middle position: it has a higher graduation rate (96.9%) and a lower chronic absenteeism rate (18.7%) than peers like Grace M. Davis High and Thomas Downey High, though its test scores in English and math generally trail those of the top-performing school in the district, Fred C. Beyer High. Compared to a high-performing school in a neighboring district, Ripon High, Gregori achieves a similar graduation rate despite serving a student population with greater economic needs.

The school's most notable strength is its success in supporting students to stay in school and graduate, but a key area for growth is mathematics proficiency, which is below the state average. It's also interesting to note that Gregori achieves these strong attendance and graduation outcomes with lower per-student spending than some district peers, suggesting efficient use of resources for student support.
