Warner Unified

Warner Unified has two schools serving 204 students: Warner Elementary (grades K–6) and Warner Junior/Senior High (grades 7–12). The clearest shared academic concern is mathematics: in 2025–2026, the two-school average was 14% proficient, compared with 38% statewide, a 24-point gap. Both schools were well below the state—by 22 points at Elementary and 26 points at the High—making math the most important area of concern across the two schools.

The High stands out in ELA and science, while Elementary leads in math. In 2025–2026, the High had 39% proficiency in ELA and 19% in science, compared with 29% and 15% at Elementary; Elementary’s 16% in math was 3 points above the High’s 13%. Both schools remained below state results in all three subjects, except for some notable grade-level results: Elementary’s fifth-grade ELA was 54%, 5 points above the state for that grade, while the High’s eighth-grade ELA was 53% and science was 40%, respectively 4 and 5 points above state results. SchoolDigger placed Elementary at the 15th percentile statewide and the High at the 21st percentile in 2025–2026. The High also had a 91% graduation rate versus 88% statewide, and chronic absenteeism was below the state’s 18% at both schools: 5% at the High and 1% at Elementary.

Recent changes are mixed, with math and science moving farther from state results while ELA improved overall. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Elementary’s ELA rose 11 points, while the High’s fell 5; their average ELA gap with the state narrowed by 2 points. Math fell at both schools, by 8 points at Elementary and 15 at the High, and the average gap widened by 13 points. Science rose 2 points at Elementary but fell 3 at the High, while the average gap widened by 4 points. The reported student-teacher ratios were 21.2:1 at Elementary and 12.5:1 at the High in 2024–2025; both schools reported 72% free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. These are context, not explanations of achievement. Because the schools serve different grades, their all-grades results are not comparisons of the same grades.
