The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance and other key metrics across these schools, suggesting significant inequities in educational opportunities for students in this area.

At the top of the pack is Dr. Richard A. Vladovic Harbor Teacher Preparation Academy, a high school that consistently ranks among the top 1% of California high schools. It boasts exceptional academic performance, with 98% of 11th graders proficient in English Language Arts and 90% proficient in Math, as well as a very high 4-year graduation rate of 97.6% and a low dropout rate of 0.8%. In contrast, Dan M. Issacs Avalon High, a smaller school with only 51 students, struggles with a 4-year graduation rate of just 55.6% and a dropout rate of 17.8%.

The data also highlights the potential impact of specialized programs, as seen with the strong performance of Wilmington Mid Sci Technical Engr Arts Math (STEAM) Magnet middle school, which outperforms the district average in both English Language Arts and Math. However, the high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility across most schools suggest that socioeconomic status may be a significant factor in student outcomes, and the varying levels of chronic absenteeism could also contribute to the disparities in academic achievement observed in this area.
