Summary

Cypress High is a 2,685-student school serving grades 9–12 in Cypress, California, in the Anaheim Union High district. In 2025–26, SchoolDigger ranked it 310th of 2,137 California schools, at the 85th percentile with 4 stars. Its test proficiency was higher than both the state and district in all three subjects: ELA was 70% (21 points above the state and 27 above the district), math was 49% (11 and 22 points higher), and science was 51% (15 and 22 points higher). The central takeaway is that Cypress outperformed state and district averages in every tested subject.

Among nearby schools serving grades 9–12 with reported results, Cypress ranked 4th of 8 in ELA, 3rd of 8 in math, and 2nd of 8 in science. Its strongest showing against these same-grade peers was science, while math was its weakest subject relative to the state and district—even though it remained above both. SchoolDigger ranked Cypress 4th among 10 nearby schools with a current ranking; Oxford Academy, Los Alamitos High, and Pacifica High ranked higher.

Results have not all followed the same path: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, the reported trend series shows ELA down 7 points, science down 6, and math essentially flat, while Cypress’s lead over the state narrowed in all three subjects. Its 2025–26 SchoolDigger percentile was below its 92nd-percentile standing in 2022–23. Cypress also had the highest reported nearby student-teacher ratio, 26.8 in 2024–25. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 61% that year, below the nearby-school average of 69%; the peer range was 16.4% to 90.7%. SchoolDigger’s group-specific measure also shows notable differences: Military Connected students were at the 32nd percentile in 2025–26, down from the 84th in 2023–24, and African American students were at the 50th percentile, down from the 90th in 2024–25. These group percentiles describe Cypress’s relative results for each group, not the students themselves.
