Summary

Del Amigo High is a very small continuation high school with only 34 students, serving grades 9-12 within the highly-regarded San Ramon Valley Unified district, and it provides a critical alternative pathway for students who have not thrived in traditional high school settings.

It's important to understand Del Amigo's role differently from nearby top-performing schools like Dougherty Valley High. As a continuation school, it serves students who were already significantly behind academically, which explains why its test scores are much lower. The school is designed with intensive support, featuring a very small student-teacher ratio of 8-to-1 and receiving over $32,000 per student—more than double the funding of the district's comprehensive high schools—to provide this personalized attention.

The school faces significant challenges, particularly with a 92% chronic absenteeism rate, but shows promising recent progress in its core mission: helping students graduate. Its graduation rate improved to 89% and its dropout rate fell to 7%. When compared to a similar school like Valley High (Continuation) in Dublin, Del Amigo has recently achieved higher graduation rates. For parents, the key takeaway is that this school's success is best measured by its ability to re-engage students and help them earn a diploma, not by comparing its test scores to those of the district's other high schools.
