Science proficiency in 2025–2026 was 38.6%, well above the state’s 25.5%, and the Science End of Course result was 38.6% versus 35.0% statewide. Tenth-grade reading was 47.1%, above the state’s 42.5%. Math is the main weakness: all-grade math proficiency was 28%, far below the state’s 44.9%, and 11th-grade math was 28% versus 35.3% statewide. All-grade reading was 47.1%, slightly below the state’s 48.6%.
Year-over-year trends show reading improving by 4.24 points, while math fell by 8.99 points and science slipped by 2.27 points. School rank has been volatile: 136th of 480 in 2023–2024, 215th of 450 in 2024–2025, and 168th of 473 in 2025–2026—a recovery from the prior year but below the earlier high point. District all-grade math and reading are higher than the high school’s all-grade figures, while district all-grade science is lower, likely reflecting other grade levels because this is the district’s only high school. Context: 18.09% free/reduced lunch and a 16.8 student-teacher ratio. Overall, the school has strong graduation, dropout, and science results, but a notable and worsening math gap; reading is mixed but improving.
