Summary

Marysville High is a public high school serving grades 9–12 and 1,034 students in Marysville, California, within the Marysville Joint Unified district. Its clearest academic strength is English language arts (ELA): 59% of students were proficient in 2025–26, above both the state and district. The biggest concern is math, where proficiency was 16%—22 points below the state.

ELA stands out against both state and local comparisons: Marysville High was 10 points above the state and 25 points above its district, and its 59% result was 8 points above the 51% average for the three nearby traditional high schools. Math was a weaker result locally as well as statewide: its 16% proficiency was 5 points below the district and 2 points below those high schools’ 18% average. In 11th-grade science, however, Marysville’s 35% proficiency was higher than the district’s 32% and each of the three nearby traditional high schools, though 3 points below the state. Completion indicators are more encouraging: the 2025–26 graduation rate was 94%, compared with 92% in the district and 88% statewide.

Results have improved over the longer term, but not evenly: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA proficiency rose 19 points, science rose 6 points, and math rose 2 points, leaving math’s state gap substantial. SchoolDigger ranked the school 995th of 2,137 California schools, at the 53rd percentile and 3 stars in 2025–26; its percentile rose from 35 the prior year. In 2024–25, 62% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 77% average among nearby schools with that same measure; the student–teacher ratio was 19.8, close to the peer median of 18.7. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for special education students was at the 16th percentile, notably below the school’s 53rd-percentile overall ranking.
