Summary:
Emery Unified School District has only one high school, Emery Secondary, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has a relatively small student population of 187 and a lower than average student-to-teacher ratio of 14.5. However, over 60% of Emery Secondary students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.
Emery Secondary's 4-year graduation rate is an impressive 96.1%, significantly higher than the state average. But the school faces challenges in other areas, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 45.4% and underperformance in Mathematics and Science assessments compared to state averages. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 720 out of 2,348 California high schools to 1,282 out of 2,123, suggesting inconsistent performance.
Overall, Emery Unified School District and its sole high school, Emery Secondary, have a mix of strengths and areas for improvement. The school's high graduation rate is a positive, but the district and school will need to address issues like chronic absenteeism and low proficiency in certain subjects to improve the overall academic performance and ranking of Emery Secondary.
