Summary:

This analysis covers 14 public schools in the 90631 zip code of La Habra, California, serving about 9,200 students from kindergarten through 12th grade across three main districts: Fullerton Joint Union High, La Habra City Elementary, and Lowell Joint.

When comparing schools, Sonora High stands out as the highest-ranked local high school with strong academic scores and a 96.5% graduation rate, notably outperforming La Habra High in English and math despite similar student demographics. Among elementary schools, El Portal Elementary in the Lowell Joint district is a top performer, while schools like Walnut Elementary and Imperial Middle in the La Habra City Elementary district face significant academic challenges.

Key findings for parents include exceptional graduation rates at both high schools, a notable success in reducing chronic absenteeism at Ladera Palma Elementary, and a clear performance difference between the two main elementary districts. There is also a surprising trend where some of the lowest-performing elementary schools have the highest reported per-student spending, suggesting how money is used may be more important than how much is spent.
