Summary:

ZIP code 92708 has four high schools serving grades 9–12, with enrollment ranging from 159 to 3,171 students. Across the schools, average proficiency was 51% in ELA, compared with 49% statewide; in math, it was 29% versus 38%, and in science, 33% versus 36%. The central finding is the wide divide between schools: Fountain Valley High led Valley Vista High by 70 percentage points in ELA, 56 in math and 53 in science.

Fountain Valley was the clear academic leader, with 81% ELA, 61% math and 64% science proficiency in 2025–2026—above the state in all three subjects. At the other end, Valley Vista had 11% ELA, 4% math and 11% science, and the group’s highest chronic absenteeism, at 58%. Los Amigos High had the second-highest ELA result, 63%, while its math proficiency was 32%, below the state. Coast High was below the state in all three subjects, but its 98% graduation rate was the highest among these schools.

Recent changes are mixed: average math proficiency rose 3 percentage points between the two school years, narrowing the gap with the state from 11 points to 9; ELA fell 1 point, and science rose 1 point while the state rose more, leaving the area 3 points below. Coast’s math proficiency increased 13 points, while Valley Vista’s ELA fell 7. SchoolDigger ranked Fountain Valley 119th statewide (94th percentile, five stars), Los Amigos 709th (67th percentile, three stars), Coast 1,298th (39th percentile, two stars) and Valley Vista 1,818th (15th percentile, one star) in 2025–2026. School-year 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible figures ranged from 32% at Coast to 92% at Los Amigos; Fountain Valley was 53% and Valley Vista 77%. Student–teacher ratios ranged from 17.7 at Coast to 27.3 at Fountain Valley, so these figures do not simply mirror the proficiency ranking.
