Summary:
The 92806 zip code area in Anaheim, California is home to 6 schools serving grades K-12, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. These schools are spread across two different districts - Anaheim Elementary and Anaheim Union High.
Among the standout schools in this area, Katella High School has the highest enrollment with 2,587 students and the strongest academic performance, boasting a 93.8% 4-year graduation rate and the lowest dropout rate at 3.7%. However, Katella High's test scores lag behind district and state averages. In contrast, Rio Vista Elementary, which is part of the higher-performing Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified district, stands out with the highest proficiency rates in English and math among the elementary schools.
The data also reveals stark differences in academic performance across the schools, with some struggling to meet state averages, particularly in math. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as South Junior High and Guinn (James M.) Elementary, tend to have lower test scores, suggesting a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement. Additionally, all schools in the area face high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be a contributing factor to the overall academic challenges.
