Summary

Arroyo High is a public high school located in San Lorenzo, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,542 students. The school is part of the San Lorenzo Unified School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Arroyo High's performance has been mixed, with a fluctuating statewide ranking and a recent drop in its SchoolDigger rating from 4 stars to 3 stars. While the school generally outperforms the other San Lorenzo Unified schools, it lags behind the higher-performing KIPP King Collegiate High in terms of academic achievement, graduation rates, and other key metrics. Arroyo High's student population faces socioeconomic challenges, with a large percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and a higher student-teacher ratio compared to some nearby schools.

One of the most significant findings is the substantial variation in student group performance at Arroyo High. The school ranks relatively well for male students and military-connected students, but struggles with the academic achievement of African American and Hispanic students. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address these achievement gaps. Additionally, the school's declining statewide ranking indicates that it may be losing ground relative to other high schools in the state, and there may be opportunities to learn from the practices and strategies employed by the more successful KIPP school.
