Greenville High

Summary:

Greenville Junior/Senior High is a small public school in Greenville, California, serving grades 7-12 with just 32 students as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school is part of the Plumas Unified School District, which is ranked 935 out of 1,560 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenville Junior/Senior High stands out for its diverse student population, with a significant percentage of Native American (15.62%) and Hispanic (21.88%) students, in contrast to the nearby Chester Junior/Senior High and Quincy Junior/Senior High, which have a higher percentage of White students. However, the school faces challenges, including fluctuating graduation and dropout rates, a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 71.8%, and lower test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the district and state averages.

The data suggests that Greenville Junior/Senior High may be facing significant socioeconomic challenges, with 81.25% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, much higher than the nearby schools. The school's statewide ranking has also dropped significantly over the years, from 188 out of 2,426 California high schools in 2012-2013 to 1,454 out of 2,335 in 2022-2023, indicating a decline in overall performance. Targeted interventions to address chronic absenteeism, low test scores, and fluctuating graduation and dropout rates could be crucial in helping the school improve its outcomes and better support its diverse student population.

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.
