Summary:

The nine listed schools in Kerman, California, are part of Kerman Unified: five elementary schools, one middle school, and three high schools serving children from elementary through high school. In 2025–2026, the unweighted school averages were 43% proficient in ELA, 25% in math, and 21% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38%, and 36%. The most important finding is that results vary substantially from school to school, so the area-wide averages do not describe every family’s school experience.

Liberty Elementary led all-grades ELA and math, with 57% and 42% proficient—7 and 4 percentage points above the state, respectively. Harvest Elementary led science at 31%, though that was 5 points below the state. Among high schools, Kerman High had the strongest 11th-grade ELA result at 55%, compared with 43% at Enterprise High and 18% at Kerman Unified Online; the state result was 57%. Online and Enterprise both reported 0% all-grades math proficiency, while Online was lowest in ELA at 16% and science at 6%.

Group averages improved in ELA and math from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, narrowing the school-to-state gaps from 10 to 6 percentage points in ELA and 15 to 13 in math; science moved the other way, with its gap widening from 13 to 15 points. Kerman-Floyd Elementary improved 12 points in ELA, 5 in math, and 14 in science, and its SchoolDigger statewide percentile rose from 29 to 50; Kerman Middle fell from 41 to 26. Staffing and income measures are context, not explanations: Liberty’s student-teacher ratio was 25.4, while Enterprise’s was 10.4 and Online’s 51.8. Each school’s reported measure was free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–2025, ranging from 82% at Liberty to 95% at Enterprise. Because schools serve different grade spans, all-grades results are not fully like-for-like.
