Summary:
The nine schools in Kerman Unified include five elementary schools, one middle school and three high schools, collectively serving students from kindergarten through high school. In 2025–26, the simple average across the schools was 43% proficient in ELA, 25% in math and 21% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. The biggest shared challenge is science, followed closely by math; ELA is the subject closest to the state result.
Liberty Elementary stands out in ELA and math, leading the group at 57% and 42% and exceeding the state by 7 and 4 percentage points. Harvest Elementary leads science at 31%, though it remains 5 points below the state. At the lower end, Kerman Unified Online has the lowest ELA and science results, at 16% and 6%; math proficiency is 0% at both Online and Enterprise High. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 rankings place Liberty, Kerman-Floyd Elementary and Harvest in the 55th–63rd statewide percentiles for their comparison groups, while Kerman Middle and the two smaller high-school programs fall in the 15th–26th percentiles.
Results improved overall from 2024–25 to 2025–26: the nine-school average rose 5 percentage points in ELA, 3 in math and 1 in science. The gap with the state narrowed in ELA and math but widened in science. SchoolDigger’s longer-term rankings also vary: Kerman-Floyd rose from the 29th to the 50th percentile, while Kerman Middle fell from the 41st to the 26th. School context can help families compare options: the 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible shares ranged from 82% at Liberty to 95% at Enterprise, and reported student–teacher ratios ranged from 10.4 at Enterprise to 51.8 at Online; these measures do not explain achievement. The high schools also show different outcomes across measures: graduation rates were 94%–100%, while chronic absenteeism ranged from 19% to 53%. Small enrollments, especially Enterprise’s 57 students, can make results less stable from year to year.
