Summary:

Zip code 95320 has two Escalon High schools, both listed as serving grades 9–12 in Escalon Unified: Escalon High, with 815 students, and Vista High (Continuation), with 21. The clearest current results are for Escalon High: in 2025–2026, 56% were proficient in English language arts (ELA), compared with 49% statewide, while math proficiency was 30% versus 38% statewide and science was 30% versus 36%. The most important takeaway is that Escalon High is above the state in ELA but below it in math and science, so its results are mixed rather than uniformly strong or weak.

Escalon High stands out for its current reported graduation rate and ELA results: its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 99%, compared with 88% statewide, and ELA proficiency was 7 percentage points above the state. Its attendance measure was also better than the state figure: chronic absenteeism was 13%, versus 18% statewide. Vista High (Continuation) stands out on the other end for chronic absenteeism at 50%, 32 points above the state. For the latest year with scores reported for both schools, 2024–2025, Escalon High led Vista High (Continuation) by 14 points in ELA (59% versus 45%) and 25 points in math (25% versus 0%). Vista’s 2025–2026 test scores are suppressed, so its current academic performance cannot be compared with Escalon’s.

Escalon High’s scores changed unevenly over time: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 3 points, math rose 6 points, and science rose 1 point. Its math deficit to the state narrowed from 13 to 8 points, while its ELA lead narrowed from 10 to 7 points and its science deficit widened from 4 to 6 points. SchoolDigger’s rank percentile for Escalon rose from 53 in 2023–2024 to 59 in 2025–2026, after reaching 61; for Vista, it rose from 0 to 30 by 2024–2025, with no newer rank provided. The schools also differ in context: in 2024–2025, Escalon had a student–teacher ratio of 21.7 and 48% free/reduced lunch eligible, while Vista had a ratio of 8.9 and 86% free/reduced lunch eligible; these figures describe different school settings, not reasons for their results.
