Butte View High

Summary:

Butte View High is a small public high school located in Sutter, California, serving grades 9-12 and part of the Sutter Union High School District. With a student population of just 20 students, Butte View High faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly White (55%) and Hispanic (40%) student body.

Butte View High consistently ranks in the bottom 25% of California high schools, with a statewide ranking between 1,166 and 1,745 out of around 2,300 schools. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is significantly lower than the state and district averages. Additionally, Butte View High has a very high dropout rate, ranging from 9.5% to 18.2% in recent years, and an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate, reaching as high as 83% in the 2021-2022 school year. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated between 69.6% and 90.5% in recent years, which is lower than the state and district averages.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Sutter High, Marysville Charter Academy for the Arts, and Marysville High, Butte View High's performance is significantly lower, with higher academic achievement, lower dropout rates, and better attendance rates. The school's struggles may be indicative of the challenges faced by small, rural schools in providing a high-quality education to their students, and suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for its 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.
