District-Level NCES Analysis
Beaumont Unified operates 14 public schools serving 11,820 students, placing it among the smaller districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 8 elementary, 3 high, 2 middle, 1 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Riverside County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $15,430 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1880 California districts by per-pupil spending. See how California compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 27.8% local, 63.7% state, and 8.5% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 33/100, ranked #1165 of 1526 in California against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 14 schools offering Advanced Placement (34 AP courses district-wide), a 534.5:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 36.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 60.5% Hispanic or Latino, 20.1% White, 7.7% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Beaumont Middle College High, with a diversity index of 65.0/100.
Its largest campus is Beaumont Senior High, enrolling 3,460 students (28% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Beaumont Middle College High, at 68 students, a 51x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Beaumont Senior High accounts for 27.8% of all Beaumont Unified student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Beaumont Unified-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Beaumont Unified school enrollment varies 51× across entities
Beaumont Unified school enrollment ranges from 68 students (lowest) to 3,460 students (highest), a spread of 3,392 students. That ratio is among the widest observed and reflects extreme enrollment heterogeneity, the district operates both small specialty programs and large comprehensive campuses inside a single budgeting unit. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Beaumont Unified student-counselor ratio is 535:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Beaumont Unified chronic absenteeism rate is 36.8% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
