Summary:

Zip code 96113 contains one high school, Herlong High, a very small rural school serving grades 9-12 within the Fort Sage Unified district.

Herlong High is a school of notable contrasts. It benefits from a very low student-teacher ratio of about 11-to-1 and exceptionally high per-student funding, over $30,000 annually, which far exceeds the state average. This investment appears to be paying off in academic improvement, as the school's statewide ranking has climbed significantly from the 41st to the 58th percentile over several years, placing it in the top half of California high schools. The district's overall graduation rate is also strong at 90.9%.

However, the school faces significant challenges with student engagement. Chronic absenteeism is very high at 50%, and older school-level data shows concerning graduation and dropout rates, though these figures may have been impacted by the pandemic. For parents, this indicates a school with considerable resources and improving academic standing, but one where consistent student attendance and engagement are critical areas of focus that directly affect outcomes.
