Summary:
Zip code 93033 has four high schools, all in the Oxnard Union High district: three serve grades 9–12, while Anacapa Adult Transition Program serves grade 12. The three schools with test results show a sharp divide: in 2025–26, Oxnard Middle College High scored 96% in ELA, 56% in math and 69% in science, while the other two schools averaged 50%, 14% and 20%, respectively. The clearest finding is that Oxnard Middle College is the area’s academic standout, and area-wide averages would hide how different the schools’ results are.
Oxnard Middle College led every subject, exceeding the other two schools’ average by 46 percentage points in ELA, 43 in math and 48 in science; it was also 47, 18 and 33 points above state results in those subjects. Among the larger high schools, Channel Islands High and Hueneme High were both near the state in ELA, but their math and science averages were 25 and 16 points below state results. Hueneme had the lowest math and science scores, at 10% and 18%; Channel Islands had the lowest ELA score, at 50%, still about level with the state. Attendance measures also separate the schools: chronic absenteeism was 2% at Oxnard Middle College, compared with 25% at each of the two larger schools.
Scores improved in ELA and science at all three tested schools from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while math was nearly unchanged in the three-school average; Oxnard Middle College’s math result fell from 60% to 56%.

Anacapa has no supplied test results, so its academic performance cannot be compared here.
