Summary:
Zip code 92345 has 22 schools—13 elementary, two middle, six high and one alternative—serving students from elementary through high school; 19 have 2025–2026 results. The central takeaway is a sharply uneven picture: average school proficiency was 27% in ELA, 17% in math and 16% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%, respectively. A few schools stand out, but the area-wide averages hide substantial differences from school to school.
Krystal School of Science Math & Technology leads the current all-grades results in every subject, with 60% proficiency in ELA, 53% in math and 46% in science—7, 30 and 19 percentage points ahead of the next-highest school in each subject. Hesperia High is the strongest high school in ELA and math, at 53% and 23%; its ELA result is 4 points above the state. At the lower end, Mojave High has the lowest reported ELA and science results, about 3% in each, while Hesperia Community Day has the lowest reported math result, 0%.
Recent average gains were modest: among schools with paired results, ELA and science rose by about 1 percentage point and math was essentially flat; state gains meant the math and science gaps widened by about 1 and 3 points. Individual changes differed: Hesperia High gained 7 points in ELA, while Sultana High fell 14; Krystal gained 16 points in science. SchoolDigger rankings also show variation: Krystal rose from the 66th to the 76th percentile, while Joshua Circle Elementary and Lime Street Elementary ranked at the 1st and 3rd percentiles. As another point of comparison, the free/reduced lunch eligible measure for 2024–2025 was 48% at Krystal, 63% at Cypress School of the Arts and 84% at Maple Elementary; these school-level figures are context, not an explanation of results. An older exception is Desert Trails Preparatory Academy, whose 2024–2025 math and science results were 2 and 7 points above the state. Three schools have no 2025–2026 test results, and suppressed results are unknown.
