Summary

John Finney High (Continuation) serves 141 students in grades 9–12 in Vallejo, as part of Vallejo City Unified. Its 2025–2026 graduation rate is higher than the district’s and state’s, but attendance is an especially serious concern: 78% of students were chronically absent, compared with 33% in the district and 18% statewide.

Low proficiency is the clearest academic weakness: in 2025–2026, 8% of students were proficient in ELA, 3% in math and 0% in science. Those results were below the state by 41, 35 and 36 percentage points, respectively, and below the district by 19, 17 and 16 points. Among eight nearby schools with results, Liberty High had the next-lowest ELA and science scores, at 20% and 17%. Graduation offers a counterpoint: John Finney’s 90% rate was 6 points above the district’s 84% and 2 points above the state’s 88%. Four nearby schools had higher rates, from 97% to 100%.

Test-score trends have been mixed rather than steadily improving: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell by 6 points, math rose by 3 points and science fell by 1 point, while the gaps with the state widened in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranked John Finney 2,053rd of 2,137 California schools, at the 4th percentile with 0 stars in 2025–2026; nearby ranked schools were at the 22nd to 82nd percentiles. The school’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 17, lower than all nearby schools except Liberty High. Its free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 87% in 2024–2025, the highest among the ten nearby schools. One notable exception to its low overall ranking: SchoolDigger placed the school at the 33rd percentile for English Language Learner students in 2023–2024, compared with its overall 7th percentile that year.
