Summary

Fontana High is a grades 9–12 school in Fontana, California, serving 2,534 students in Fontana Unified. Its graduation rate is high at 96%, compared with 88% statewide, and chronic absenteeism has declined substantially. The most important takeaway is that ELA is a clear strength, while math remains the school’s biggest academic concern.

In 2025–2026, 62% of students were proficient in ELA—13 percentage points above California and 22 above the district. Math proficiency was 24%, 14 points below the state and 2 below the district; science was 27%, 9 points below the state but 3 above the district. Among nearby traditional district high schools, Fontana ranked fourth of five in ELA and science, and last in math. Those peers include Summit High, Henry J. Kaiser High, Fontana A. B. Miller High and Jurupa Hills High.

Over 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, proficiency rose by 2 points in ELA, 9 in math and 7 in science, although all three subjects fell from their 2024–2025 results. Chronic absenteeism also improved, dropping 14 points from 34% in 2021–2022 to 20% in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 55th statewide percentile and gives it 3 stars. Its student-teacher ratio is 22.6, and 95% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s statewide student-group rankings show a notable contrast: the school ranked at the 17th percentile for how well it serves Special Education Students, versus 55th overall, while its ranking for Homeless Students was stronger, at the 77th percentile.
