Summary

Yucaipa High is a large public high school serving grades 9-12 with approximately 2,755 students in the Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified school district, where it stands out as the clear academic leader.

The school's greatest strength is its exceptional graduation rate of over 97%, which far exceeds the rates at other high schools in its own district, such as Green Valley High and Oak View High School & Education Center. It achieves these strong outcomes, including solid proficiency in English Language Arts, despite having larger class sizes and lower per-student spending than those district alternatives. However, math proficiency is an area for improvement, and a significant and growing concern is chronic student absenteeism, which has risen sharply in recent years.

When compared to high schools in neighboring districts, Yucaipa High holds a solid middle position. It performs comparably to Beaumont Senior High but is outperformed by some schools in the Redlands Unified district, such as Redlands Senior High and Citrus Valley High. The school shows notable effectiveness with several student subgroups but faces challenges in supporting others, particularly English Language Learners.
