Summary
Baldwin Park High serves 1,260 students in grades 9–12 in Baldwin Park, California. In 2025–26, 99% of students graduated, compared with 88% statewide and 90% in Baldwin Park Unified; its dropout rate was 1%, versus 8% statewide and 6% in the district. The standout finding is that graduation is exceptionally strong even though achievement varies sharply by subject.
ELA is a clear strength, while math is the biggest academic concern. In 2025–26, 63% of students were proficient in ELA—14 percentage points above the state and 24 above the district. Math proficiency was 21%, 18 points below the state and 7 below the district. Science was 29%, 7 points below the state but 2 above the district.

Results have improved in some areas since 2023–24, but longer-term progress is uneven: ELA rose from 56% to 63%, and math and science also increased over those two years. Across 2022–23 to 2025–26, however, ELA fell by 5 points, math was nearly unchanged, and science rose by 3 points, while the state’s results rose in all three subjects.
