Summary

Red Bluff High is a public high school in Red Bluff, California, serving 1,586 students in grades 9–12. Its clearest academic concern is math: 20% of students were proficient in 2025–26, 19 percentage points below the state rate.

Completion and attendance are stronger than test results: the graduation rate was 96%, compared with 88% statewide and 92% in the Red Bluff Joint Union High district, while the dropout rate was 3% versus 8% statewide and 6% in the district. In proficiency, Red Bluff was close to the state in English language arts (ELA), at 48% versus 49%, but trailed the state in science (30% versus 36%) and math. It ranked third of four larger nearby high schools in each subject. Compared with West Valley Early College High, Corning Union High and Los Molinos High, science was its closest result to their average: 30% versus 32%. Math was furthest behind, at 20% versus their 26% average.

Math has weakened over time: proficiency fell from 27% in 2022–23 to 20% in 2025–26, while the gap with the state widened from 8 to 19 points. ELA also fell in the latest year, by 7 points. SchoolDigger ranked Red Bluff at the 46th percentile in 2025–26, with 2 stars, down from the 58th percentile and 3 stars in each of the prior two years. The school reported that 76% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for English Language Learner Students fell from the 94th percentile in 2021–22 to the 25th in 2023–24, a sharp decline in how the school ranked in serving that group. Its Multi-racial Students ranking was at the 19th percentile in 2024–25, compared with the school’s overall 58th percentile that year.
