Kings Canyon Continuation

Summary:

Kings Canyon Continuation is a public high school located in Dinuba, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 165 students. The school is part of the Kings Canyon Joint Unified School District, which is ranked 612 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Kings Canyon Continuation has consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 87.7% in 2018-2019 to 100% in 2021-2022, which is notably better than the 64% four-year graduation rate at the nearby Sierra Vista High (Continuation). The school also has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1.4% over the past five years, significantly better than the 14% and 15.4% dropout rates at Ronald Reagan Academy and Sierra Vista High (Continuation), respectively. However, Kings Canyon Continuation struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.3% to 46.2%, which is much higher than the 21% rate at Dinuba High and the 8.3% rate at Reedley High.

Despite its strong graduation and low dropout rates, Kings Canyon Continuation's test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 28.57% of 11th-grade students at Kings Canyon Continuation were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 63.91% in the Kings Canyon Joint Unified district and 55.73% statewide. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving student engagement and academic support to better serve its population of at-risk students.

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.
