Summary:
Four public high schools serve students in grades 9-12 within the Dublin Unified School District in zip code 94568 (Dublin, CA), a district ranked in the 91st percentile statewide, offering a mix of traditional, continuation, and specialized transition programs for a total enrollment of over 3,700 students.
Dublin High is the established academic leader, with a statewide ranking in the 96th percentile, a 98% graduation rate, and test scores significantly above state averages. The newer Emerald High shows great promise with an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 4.7% and a lower student-teacher ratio than Dublin High. In contrast, Valley High (Continuation) and the Dublin Unified Transition Program serve smaller, specialized populations with much higher levels of support, reflected in very low student-teacher ratios.
The district excels in graduation rates and low dropout rates, but faces a clear performance gap between its traditional and alternative schools. While Dublin High's science scores dip in 12th grade, Emerald High's strong attendance and favorable resources present a model worth watching. Overall, parents can expect strong traditional high school options in a high-performing district, with additional programs available to meet diverse student needs.
