Summary:

Zip code 92270 in Rancho Mirage, California, contains one public high school, Rancho Mirage High, which serves grades 9-12 within the Palm Springs Unified School District.

This school demonstrates a notable strength in ensuring students graduate, with a very high 97.8% graduation rate and a low 1.0% dropout rate, both figures outperforming district and state averages. Its performance in English Language Arts is also a relative strength, exceeding comparison averages. However, proficiency in mathematics and science is significantly below state averages, and the school has a concerning rate of chronic student absenteeism that is higher than the state norm.

While Rancho Mirage High consistently performs better than its district in key areas, its statewide ranking has declined over the past few years. The school receives substantial per-student funding, and parents should note the significant disparity between its exceptional graduation success and the lower academic proficiency scores, which may indicate strong support systems to help students complete school despite academic challenges.
