Summary:
ZIP code 93644 has eight schools: two elementary schools, one middle school, four high schools and one alternative school. In 2025–26, the average reported proficiency was 31% in ELA, 12% in math and 15% in science, compared with California rates of 49%, 38% and 36%. The scores also vary substantially from school to school, so the area averages do not describe every family’s options; the clearest overall finding is that math is the most consistent weakness relative to the state.
Yosemite High stands out in ELA, with 52% proficiency—3 points above the state—while the lowest reported ELA results were 17% at Evergreen High and 20% at Ahwahnee High. In math, Oakhurst Elementary led at 22%, but was still 17 points below the state; Evergreen and Ahwahnee each had 0%. Oak Creek Intermediate led science at 25%, 11 points below the state, while Evergreen had 0%. In 2024–25, Glacier High School Charter led ELA and math, and Mountain Home Charter (Alternative) led science; both were above state rates in all three subjects.
Across schools with scores in both years, results generally moved farther from state performance: average ELA proficiency fell about 4 points, from 35% to 31%, and science fell 8 points, from 23% to 15%; math rose about 1 point, from 11% to 12%, but remained well below the state. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 rankings place Yosemite High at the 45th percentile, compared with the 5th for Evergreen, 12th for Ahwahnee, 18th for Oakhurst and 29th for Oak Creek. The schools’ free/reduced lunch eligible measure for school year 2024–25 ranged from 43% at Mountain Home to 82% at Oakhurst; Glacier and Mountain Home both exceeded state rates across subjects despite different reported rates. Ratios also vary: Glacier’s was 13.5 students per teacher and Mountain Home’s was 26.6, yet both had strong 2024–25 results. Some 2025–26 scores are unavailable, and schools differ in grades served.
