Summary:
This analysis covers 11 schools in the 94587 zip code of Union City, California, serving grades K-12, with the majority belonging to the New Haven Unified School District, which ranks in the 61st percentile statewide.
Standout schools include Delaine Eastin Elementary, the highest-ranked traditional school, and Connecting Waters Charter - East Bay, an alternative school with exceptional attendance and solid academics. Itliong-Vera Cruz Middle School is a strong performer, while James Logan High shows excellent graduation rates. In contrast, Searles Elementary and Cesar Chavez Middle are lower-performing schools within the district that may need additional support.
Key findings show a significant performance gap between the two middle schools and that per-student spending does not strongly correlate with outcomes. The charter school's near-perfect attendance is notable, while chronic absenteeism varies widely across all schools. The district's high school achieves impressive graduation success, and several elementary schools demonstrate that strong academic results are possible across different socioeconomic backgrounds.
