Summary

Phillip J Patino School of Entrepreneurship is a Fresno Unified high school in Fresno, California, serving grades 9–12 with 282 students. Its academic results are sharply uneven: strong English language arts (ELA) performance contrasts with math proficiency of just 12%, the school’s clearest academic concern.

ELA is a standout compared with nearby schools and the district and state: 79% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, 15 percentage points above the nearby-school average of 64%, 30 points above the state’s 49%, and 39 points above Fresno Unified’s 40%. Patino ranked second among six nearby schools with results, behind Design Science Middle College High. Math was near the bottom: 12% proficiency was 21 points below the nearby average, 27 below the state, and 18 below the district; only McLane High scored lower. Graduation is another strength: the rate was 100% in 2025–2026, matching Design Science and exceeding the district’s 91% and state’s 88%.

Results over time reinforce the contrast: math fell 21 percentage points from 33% in 2022–2023 to 12% in 2025–2026, while ELA rose 6 points and science rose 12 points. Chronic absenteeism also improved, dropping 19 points to 18%. SchoolDigger gave Patino 3 stars and ranked it in the 58th percentile statewide, fourth among six nearby schools with current ranks; its percentile has fallen 14 points since 2022–2023. SchoolDigger’s Female Students ranking is notably lower: 37th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with 58th overall, and down 22 points since 2023–2024. As context, Patino’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 21.3, the third highest among 10 nearby schools with reported ratios, and 84% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby average of 83%.
