Summary

Gabrielino High is a large, comprehensive public high school serving grades 9-12 to 1,438 students in the San Gabriel Unified school district, consistently achieving high academic rankings despite serving a community with significant economic need.

The school stands out for its strong outcomes across key areas: a 93.8% graduation rate far exceeds state and district averages, and proficiency in core subjects like math and science is notably higher than at many nearby schools with similar student populations, such as Rosemead High and El Monte High. It also maintains a low chronic absenteeism rate, indicating a strong school culture that keeps students engaged. While operating with a moderate budget and class sizes, Gabrielino delivers results that compete with schools in more affluent areas like San Marino High and Temple City High.

Within its own San Gabriel Unified district, Gabrielino is the clear flagship, significantly outperforming the alternative Del Mar High. Parents should note that while the school excels overall and effectively supports economically disadvantaged students and English learners, performance can vary year-to-year for some student groups, and recent data shows a very slight dip from its historically top-tier rankings.
