Summary

Prospect High in Saratoga serves grades 9–12 and enrolls 1,460 students in the Campbell Union High district. Its 2025–2026 proficiency results were above California’s in English language arts, math, and science: 59%, 43%, and 46%, compared with 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide. But the school scored below its district in all three subjects and ranked eighth among ten nearby high schools with reportable results in each—so its strongest overall takeaway is that it exceeds state results but trails most local schools.

Within its district, however, Prospect performs better than several nearby alternatives: it ranked second among four district high schools in each subject, behind Westmont High. Its results were 11 points above the average of those three district peers in ELA, 19 points higher in math, and 12 points higher in science. The wider comparison is tougher: among nearby schools with results, Prospect’s scores were 13 points below the ELA average, 15 below the math average, and 14 below the science average. Science is its strongest subject relative to the state, where it leads by 10 points; ELA is its largest gap behind the district, at 7 points. Graduation is another relative strength: 95% of students graduated, compared with 88% statewide and 96% districtwide.

Test scores have slipped from four years earlier: ELA was down 3 points, math 2 points, and science 2 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, even as the school’s lead over state results narrowed. SchoolDigger places Prospect at the 76th statewide percentile and gives it 4 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 90th percentile in 2020–2021. Its student-teacher ratio was 21.4 in 2024–2025, and 49% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of effectiveness in serving Hispanic students placed Prospect at the 27th percentile, compared with 76th overall, down from the 48th percentile in 2023–2024; its measure for serving students with disabilities fell from the 78th percentile to the 46th over that period.
