Summary

Park West High (Continuation) is a 225-student school serving grades 9–12 in Pomona, within Pomona Unified. Its graduation rate has improved sharply, but chronic absenteeism remains high: 63% of students were chronically absent in 2025–26, compared with 24% in the district and 18% statewide. The most important concern is academic proficiency: Park West had the lowest reported all-grades results among 10 nearby schools in ELA, math and science.

Park West’s strongest subject relative to district and state benchmarks is science, though its results remain low across the board. In 2025–26, proficiency was 8% in ELA, 2% in math and 6% in science—below Pomona Unified by 31, 23 and 17 percentage points, respectively, and below state rates by 41, 36 and 30 points. The next-lowest nearby results were 19% in ELA and 5% in math at San Antonio High (Continuation), and 12% in science at Pomona High. Graduation is a notable strength: Park West reached 91% in 2025–26, 3 points above the state and about level with the district.

Graduation rose from 63% in 2021–22 to 91% in 2025–26, while ELA proficiency fell from 21% to 8% between 2022–23 and 2025–26; the gap with the state widened in all three subjects over that period. SchoolDigger placed Park West at the 15th statewide percentile and awarded it 1 star in 2025–26; only San Antonio High (Continuation) was close among the nearby schools, at the 18th percentile. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students ranking also fell sharply, from the 37th percentile in 2022–23 to the 18th in 2023–24; no later subgroup ranking is supplied. As context, the 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 15.0, and 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, the fifth-highest rate among nearby schools with the same measure.
