The school is part of the Fillmore Unified School District, which is ranked 1,321 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fillmore Senior High has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 92.8% to 95.0% over the past five years, which is higher than the district and state averages. However, the school's performance on standardized tests, such as the Smarter Balanced Assessments and the California Science Test (CAST), is generally below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics. Additionally, Fillmore Senior High has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.1% in 2017-2018 to 23.5% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the district and state averages.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Thousand Oaks High, Royal High, and Rancho Campana High, Fillmore Senior High's academic performance is generally lower. The school also faces challenges in addressing achievement gaps among different student subgroups, with male and Hispanic students performing better than female and white students, respectively. Additionally, the school's performance for English Language Learners, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students is consistently lower than the state averages, which may be attributed to the high percentage of students (over 75%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
