California College-Going Rate

36.4% of the 2022-23 graduating class enrolled in college within a year.

The share of 2022-23 graduates who enrolled at a college anywhere in the U.S. within 12 months, per the National Student Clearinghouse match the California Department of Education publishes.

Within 12 months

36.4%

of 22 graduates

Give the same class four more months and 40.9% had enrolled — CDE publishes a 16-month window alongside the 12-month one, 9 students.

Down 3.6 points from the 2021-22 class (40%).

CDE puts each graduate in one bucket only — whichever kind of college they were enrolled in longest — so these add up to the rate above. That is a different count from the UC Reach Score on this page, which counts a student at every UC campus that admitted them.

CDE builds the rate by matching California high school completers to National Student Clearinghouse enrollment records; we publish CDE’s aggregates and hold no student-level data.

College readiness

Getting ready for college

These come from the state and federal files, not from UC — so they are here whether or not Orange County Workforce Innovation High has a UC admissions record.

A-G Completion ⓘ

Only 1 in 10 graduates finish the courses UC and CSU require — below the state norm. Worth asking how course access and planning work here.

11%

1 of 9 graduates · 2024-25 cohort

In context: CA median 55.9% · -44.8 pp vs. median · Orange Co. 60.5%.

SBAC academic outcomes — grade 11, 2025

Share of grade-11 students meeting or exceeding the California standard on Smarter Balanced ELA and Math. This is the academic-readiness signal that pairs with UC Reach (post-grad outcomes), stability (retention), and absenteeism (engagement). Note: statewide median Math is only ~20% — a school at 20% isn't an outlier; one at 45%+ genuinely is.

About 1 in 4 students read and write at grade level — below the state norm — worth asking what extra support looks like.

Fewer than 1 in 10 students do math at grade level — below the state norm — worth asking what extra support looks like.

Chronic absenteeism — 2024-25

Share of students missing 10% or more of expected attendance — the leading indicator that often precedes the demand decline shown above. Families disengaging tend to raise absenteeism first, then formally leave. Basis: grades 9–12.

57% of students miss 10%+ of school days — above the state's ~23%. Ask what the school is doing about engagement.

Chronic absent

Absenteeism is up 10.5 pp since 2016-17. A rising absenteeism trend often precedes formal departure — worth investigating which subgroups are driving it.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25

Two complementary signals: retention (do students stay once enrolled?) and demand (are families choosing the school?). Read against the Orange County baseline — the demographic tide is moving every CA HS, so a school's gap vs. county is the actionable signal.

56% of students who start the year finish it here — more churn than most CA schools. Ask what's behind the turnover.

Mixed signal

Demand outpacing county is masking internal churn.

Enrollment growth is beating Orange County (+12.0% vs. -6.0%), but 138 of 315 students didn't maintain continuous enrollment. Why are families leaving once enrolled? Chronic absenteeism is also at 56.7% (up +10.5 pts from 2016-17) — engagement and demand are both signaling decline.

Benchmarks limited to non-virtual public & charter HS with ≥100 cumulative enrollees so by-design-high-churn continuation schools don't dominate the bottom of the distribution.
