Baker High School ranked 166th of 271 (39th percentile, 2 stars); its graduation rate of 92.6%, ELA of 46.4%, and science of 32.3% are near or above state averages, but math proficiency is only 7.7%, far below the district’s 28.4% and the state’s 32.9%. Eagle Cap Innovative Junior/Senior High School has the most challenging results in the available data: a 43.8% graduation rate and 76.5% chronic absenteeism, with no current test scores reported.
Notably, per-student spending does not track with outcomes here. Baker High School spends $28,674 per student — the highest in the group — while Baker Early College spends $3,635. Baker Early College also has high chronic absenteeism (57.1%) despite strong achievement, and Eagle Cap’s last available ranking is from 2017–18. Gaps in the data — no free/reduced lunch or student-teacher ratio for Baker Early College, and no current test scores for Eagle Cap — mean poverty, staffing, and current academics cannot be fully compared, even though the district overall ranks 43rd of 141 (70th percentile, 4 stars).
