Summary:

This analysis examines five high schools serving grades 9-12 in the 92570 zip code of Perris, CA, revealing a diverse educational landscape with significant performance differences among schools serving similar, predominantly low-income communities.

The standout school is the California Military Institute, which achieves a perfect 100% graduation rate and the best attendance despite high poverty rates, ranking it highest among local schools. In contrast, Perris Lake High (Continuation) faces severe challenges, with very low test scores and extremely high chronic absenteeism. Other unique options include Pathways for Adult Life Skills for special needs students and the small Scholar Plus Online Learning academy, which shows strength in English but not math.

Overall, schools in the Perris Union High district, which contains four of the five schools, show the widest performance gap, while Citrus Hill High in the Val Verde Unified district performs near the middle. A key takeaway is that higher per-student spending does not automatically lead to better outcomes, and math proficiency is a universal area needing improvement across all schools in the area.
