Summary

Orland High is a 725-student school serving grades 9–12 in Orland, California. Its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 97%, above the state’s 88% and the Orland Joint Unified rate of 95%. The clearest concern is mathematics: 14% of students were proficient, 24 percentage points below the state and essentially level with the district.

English language arts is the school’s strongest subject compared with the state and district: 44% were proficient, 5 points below the state but 14 points above the district. Nearby, Hamilton High and Willows High were ahead in ELA, at 50% and 49%. Science sits between ELA and math: 24% were proficient, 12 points below the state and 3 points above the district. Math also trailed Hamilton (22%) and Willows (20%), but Orland was ahead of Corning Union High (7%).

Over time, math proficiency rose by about 1 point from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while the state rose by 4 points, widening Orland’s gap. ELA fell by about 2 points over that period, while science rose by 4. SchoolDigger placed Orland at the 36th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, down 13 percentile points from 2022–2023, though that was still the third-highest current ranking among nearby schools. Its student-teacher ratio was 18.3 in 2024–2025. That year, 78% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; this is an eligibility measure, not the share receiving meals. One notable subgroup result is the sharp recent decline in SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Special Education Students: the group ranked at the 4th percentile in 2025–2026, down from the 44th percentile the year before, compared with the school’s overall 36th percentile.
