Summary:

The 91321 zip code in Newhall, California, is served by eight public schools across three districts, educating roughly 5,500 students from kindergarten through 12th grade.

For families, William S. Hart High stands out as the area's top traditional school, with a near-perfect graduation rate and strong academic rankings. Among elementary schools, performance varies significantly within the same Newhall district; Peachland Avenue Elementary and Dr. J. Michael McGrath Elementary are higher-ranked, while Newhall Elementary consistently ranks lower. The alternative Learning Post Academy has a perfect graduation record but higher absenteeism.

A key trend across all schools is that math scores lag behind English scores, a challenge especially visible in the higher grades. The Newhall elementary district generally outperforms the neighboring Sulphur Springs Union district, which includes Valley View Community Elementary. Interestingly, higher per-student spending does not always correlate with better academic outcomes, as seen when comparing schools like Wiley Canyon Elementary and William S. Hart High.
