Summary:

ZIP code 95338 has six schools serving elementary through high school: two K–8 schools, two high schools, two alternative schools, and one K–12 school; five are in Mariposa County Unified and one is in the Mariposa County Office of Education. The biggest difference is between the high schools: in 11th grade, Mariposa County High outscored Spring Hill High (Continuation) by 36 points in ELA, 19 in math and 32 in science.

Mariposa Elementary led the two K–8 schools in 2025–2026, with 26% proficiency in ELA, 20% in math and 28% in science, compared with 23%, 17% and 22% at Woodland Elementary—advantages of about 3, 3 and 5 points. Mariposa County High also had the stronger high-school outcomes: its 11th-grade results were 36% in ELA, 27% in math and 32% in science, while Spring Hill recorded 0%, 8% and 0%. Mariposa County High’s graduation rate was 98%, versus 79% at Spring Hill; their dropout rates were 1% and 21%, respectively. Attendance is a concern at both high schools: chronic absenteeism was 37% at Mariposa County High and 85% at Spring Hill.

Most schools’ all-grades proficiency declined from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while Sierra Home improved in every subject: 12 points in ELA, 2 in math and 11 in science, though its latest scores remained below state all-grades results. SchoolDigger’s ranking percentiles fell over the reported period for Mariposa Elementary (45th to 11th), Woodland (32nd to 9th) and Mariposa County High (65th to 47th); Spring Hill rose from the 1st to the 7th percentile. School profiles also differ: in 2024–2025, student-teacher ratios were 22.5 at Mariposa Elementary and 18.9 at Woodland, while free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 76% and 65%. These figures are context, not explanations for results. Monarch Academy’s 2025–2026 proficiency results are suppressed, so its test standing cannot be compared.
