Summary:
The 95460 zip code area is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 Mendocino K-8, 2 high schools (Mendocino High and Mendocino Sunrise High), and 1 alternative school (Mendocino Alternative). These schools are part of the Mendocino Unified district.
Mendocino High stands out as the top-performing school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 25% of California high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. With a 100% 4-year graduation rate and a low 0% dropout rate, Mendocino High appears to be providing a quality education for its students. In contrast, Mendocino Sunrise High seems to be the weakest performer, ranking in the bottom 10% of California high schools and having a concerning 100% chronic absenteeism rate.
The data also reveals some concerning trends across the schools, such as high chronic absenteeism rates at Mendocino K-8 (53.1%) and Mendocino Sunrise High (100%), as well as relatively high free/reduced lunch rates (over 50%) across all schools, suggesting a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population. The variation in student-teacher ratios, from 7.0 at Mendocino Sunrise High to 22.2 at Mendocino Alternative, could also impact the level of individualized attention and support available to students.
