Summary:

Zip code 91502 has one high school, Burbank High, serving grades 9–12 and 2,457 students. Its latest all-grades results show a mixed picture: graduation is strong compared with the state, while chronic absenteeism is higher than both the state and district. In 2025–2026, 94% of students graduated, compared with 88% statewide, but 20% were chronically absent, versus 18% statewide and 13% in Burbank Unified. The clearest academic strength is ELA, where proficiency was 7 percentage points above the state.

There is no meaningful top or bottom school within the area because Burbank High is the only school listed. Compared with the state in 2025–2026, its ELA proficiency was 57% versus 49%; math was 37% versus 38%, and science was nearly level at 36% versus 36%. Compared with Burbank Unified, the school was 1 point lower in ELA, 11 points lower in math, and 8 points lower in science. Its graduation rate was 6 points above the state but 1 point below the district; its 2% dropout rate was below the state’s 8% but slightly above the district’s 2%. These contrasting results make absenteeism an important counterpoint to the favorable state-level graduation and dropout comparisons.

Science improved most over time: proficiency rose 11 points, from 25% in 2024–2025 to 36% in 2025–2026, while the statewide rate rose 3 points, bringing the school close to the state result. ELA’s state advantage held at about 7 points, while math fell further behind as the state improved more. Grade-level results offer useful exceptions: 11th-grade math was 5 points above the state, and 12th-grade science was 6 points above; 11th-grade ELA and science were below their state comparisons. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking improved from 804th of 2,159 schools (63rd percentile) in 2023–2024 to 713th of 2,137 (67th percentile) in 2025–2026; it gave the school 3 stars in each year shown. Context figures include a 25.4 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 37% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. With only one school in the list, these figures cannot establish how school characteristics relate to results.
