Lone Pine High

Summary:

Lone Pine High School is a public high school located in Lone Pine, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 107 students. The school is part of the Lone Pine Unified School District, which is ranked 702 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lone Pine High has consistently maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 84.8% to 100% over the past five years, which is a notable strength compared to the state average. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.3% in 2018-2019 to 22.1% in 2022-2023, an area of concern that requires further investigation. Lone Pine High's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with English Language Arts/Literacy proficiency rates generally on par with or slightly above the state and district averages, but Mathematics and Science proficiency rates below the state and district averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Owens Valley High and Sierra Alternative Learning Academy, both of which have much smaller enrollments, Lone Pine High appears to be the stronger performer. Owens Valley High has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, while Sierra Alternative Learning Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of California high schools, indicating that Lone Pine High is performing better in comparison.

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.
