Best Public Schools in Zip Code 92806

Summary:

This analysis examines six public schools in Anaheim's 92806 zip code, serving about 6,000 students from kindergarten through 12th grade across three different districts, in a community where a high percentage of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the schools, Juarez (Benito) Elementary stands out as the top performer, with the strongest academic scores in its Anaheim Elementary district and the lowest rate of chronic student absences. In contrast, South Junior High faces significant challenges, ranking in the lowest percentiles statewide with very low math proficiency and high absenteeism. Katella High presents a notable case with an exceptionally high graduation rate of 96.8%, despite its students also struggling with very low math proficiency.

A key takeaway for the area is a widespread challenge in mathematics, with all schools scoring below the state average. Chronic absenteeism is also a common concern, and the school with the lowest absenteeism (Benito Juarez) performs the best academically. While Rio Vista Elementary is part of the higher-performing Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified district, it performs below its district's averages. There is no clear link between higher per-student spending, as seen at Sunkist Elementary, and stronger academic outcomes in this group.
