The West Sonoma County Union High School District is located in Western Sonoma County stretching from the rural orchards and dairies north of Petaluma on up the coast to the historic reaches of Fort Ross. The largest residential area in the District is the city of Sebastopol, located fifty miles north of San Francisco and 10 miles west of Santa Rosa. The District lies within the world famous wine, grape, and apple producing region of Sonoma County. North of Sebastopol the communities of Forestville, Cazadero, Graton, Guerneville, Occidental and Monte Rio offer a slower paced life style for middle-income families who work in the area. A growing trend sees more families moving north from the congestion and pace of the larger urban areas of the San Francisco Bay.
The high school District serves students in grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of approximately 2200 students. Students who enter the District's high schools come from diverse elementary experiences in ten elementary Districts spread across the western part of the county. Strong parent and community support for education is evident as District students traditionally surpass state and national averages in academic achievement tests and college entrance exams. Approximately 80% of the District graduates go on to attend a community college, four-year college or business/trade school. In 2005, the District added a new state-of-art library at El Molino High School, new and refurbished classrooms and gyms were completed for both campuses and a new student plaza was developed at Analy High School.
District schools include Analy and El Molino High Schools(each four-time California Distinguished High Schools), and Laguna High School (a state model continuation high school). The District operates a Community Day School for qualified students. The District also maintains an independent study program known as Russian River Ramparts (located in Guerneville) for El Molino students, and independent study programs at Analy and Laguna High Schools.
