Summary

Banning High serves 1,145 students in grades 9–12 in Banning, California, in the Banning Unified district. Its results are mixed: science is close to the state level, but mathematics is the clearest concern. In 2025–26, 15% of students were proficient in math, 23 points below the state and 3 points below the district.

Compared with six nearby conventional high schools, Banning is strongest in science and math: it led the group in both subjects and ranked second in English language arts (ELA). Its results were 32% in science, 15% in math and 41% in ELA, compared with nearby-school averages of 17%, 11% and 30%, respectively. Statewide, Banning was 4 points below the state in science, 9 points below in ELA and 23 points below in math. It outperformed the district by 10 points in science and 12 in ELA, but trailed it by 3 points in math. These comparisons show a local strength, particularly in science, alongside a substantial statewide math gap.

All three subjects improved between 2022–23 and 2025–26: ELA rose 13 points, math 6 and science 15. However, in the latest year ELA fell 7 points and math fell 6, while science rose 2.
