Summary

Summit High serves 2,725 students in grades 9–12 in Fontana, within Fontana Unified. Its graduation and dropout outcomes are especially strong: in 2025–2026, 97.8% of students graduated, compared with 95.6% in the district and 87.9% statewide; only nearby Wilmer Amina Carter High was higher, at 98.1%. Summit’s dropout rate was 0.3%, the lowest reported among nearby schools, versus 1.9% in the district and 8.3% statewide. The clearest takeaway is that Summit pairs mixed test results with a notably high graduation rate and very low dropout rate.

ELA is Summit’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools, while science is its weakest. In 2025–2026, 69% of Summit students were proficient in ELA, above the state’s 49% and district’s 41%; Summit ranked fourth among eight nearby comprehensive high schools, just above their 68% average. Math proficiency was 36%, slightly below the state’s 34%? Wait, the state result was 38%, making Summit 2 points lower; it was 10 points above the district and just above the nearby-school average of 35%. Science proficiency was 34%, 2 points below the state and 9 above the district, but 7 below the nearby-school average of 40%; Summit ranked sixth of eight. This makes science the clearest academic area to watch, especially against local peers.

All three subjects improved overall since 2022–2023 by about 5 percentage points each, but the state gap narrowed only in math: ELA’s advantage grew to 20 points, while math and science remained 2 points below the state. ELA also fell from 76% in 2024–2025 to 69% the following year. SchoolDigger gave Summit a 69th-percentile ranking and 3 stars in 2025–2026, down 5 percentile points and one star from the prior year; its 24.5 student-teacher ratio was among the higher nearby figures. In 2024–2025, 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the eighth-highest rate among nearby schools with the same measure and year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students was 26th percentile, 43 points below Summit’s overall standing, after dropping 20 points in a year; its ranking for Multi-racial Students rose from the 45th to the 73rd percentile from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026.
