Summary

Pacific High serves 1,246 students in grades 9–12 in San Bernardino. Its 2025–26 graduation rate was 94%, above the San Bernardino City Unified rate of 86% and California’s 88%, but chronic absenteeism was also high: 39%, compared with 29% in the district and 18% statewide. The central takeaway is this contrast: most students graduate, yet attendance remains a substantial concern.

Academically, English language arts (ELA) is the relative bright spot and math the clearest weakness. In 2025–26, 36% of students were proficient in ELA, above the nearby-school average of 32%, though below the district’s 39% and the state’s 49%. Math proficiency was 11%, below the nearby average of 14%, the district’s 26%, and the state’s 38%; science was 18%, also below the district’s 25% and the state’s 36%. Among Pacific and seven nearby schools with results, Pacific ranked fifth of eight in ELA and science, and seventh of eight in math. For example, Indian Springs High had a higher SchoolDigger percentile, while San Andreas High was lower.

Scores improved modestly from 2022–23 to 2025–26: ELA rose 3 percentage points, math 1 point, and science 4 points. However, Pacific’s gap with the state widened in math and science. SchoolDigger rated the school at the 27th percentile with 1 star in 2025–26; its 19.8:1 student-teacher ratio was midrange among nearby schools. Pacific reported that 97% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, a share tied with Indian Springs for the highest among nearby schools reporting that measure. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves Special Education Students rose to the 41st percentile in 2025–26 from the 15th percentile in 2023–24. Its measure for Homeless Students fell to the 3rd percentile from the 41st over the same period.
