Summary

Miramonte High is a 1,167-student high school serving grades 9–12 in Orinda’s East Bay community and is part of the Acalanes Union High district. Its latest results place it among California’s highest-performing schools: in 2025–2026, SchoolDigger ranked it 20th out of 2,137 schools, in the 99th percentile, with five stars.

Science is Miramonte’s standout subject compared with nearby schools, while math is its relative weak spot—but its results are above both district and state levels in every subject. Miramonte’s science proficiency was 83%, 47 percentage points above the state and 17 above its district; it was the highest reported nearby result, ahead of Piedmont High and Campolindo High. ELA proficiency was 94%, 45 points above the state and 12 above the district; only Piedmont was higher nearby, at 95%. Math was 72%, 34 points above the state and 7 above the district, but below Piedmont at 79% and Campolindo at 77%; it was just above Acalanes High, at 70%.

Results have risen over the reported years in ELA and science, but math’s recent drop merits attention. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA increased from 85% to 94% and science from 69% to 83%, while math rose from 70% to 72% overall after falling 6 points from 2024–2025. SchoolDigger rankings have stayed in the 99th percentile for the past three reported years, with the school’s rank improving from 30th to 20th. The school’s 18.9 students per teacher in 2024–2025 was close to the nearby-school average of 18.5. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 5% that year; this is an eligibility measure, and California is identified as a statewide free-meals state. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Asian Students rose from the 79th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 97th in 2025–2026, approaching the school’s overall 99th-percentile standing in this measure of how well it serves that group.
