Summary

Redwood High is a large, top-performing public high school serving grades 9-12 to about 2,490 students in the Visalia Unified School District, consistently ranking among the best in California and standing out as the highest-achieving traditional high school in its area.

The school excels in key student outcomes, boasting a near-perfect 99.6% graduation rate with zero dropouts and the lowest chronic absenteeism among comparable local schools like El Diamante High and Mt. Whitney High. Academically, its English Language Arts proficiency dramatically leads the district and state, though there is a noted opportunity for growth in mathematics. Impressively, Redwood achieves these excellent results while spending less per student than most neighboring schools, effectively supporting students from all backgrounds.

While charter options like University Preparatory High show very high rankings, they serve far fewer students with different resources. For families seeking a large, comprehensive public school with a proven record of success and exceptional support systems, Redwood High represents a standout choice in Visalia.
