Yosemite High

Nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills just outside the entrance to Yosemite National Park, Oakhurst is a small mountain gateway town where outdoor life is woven into everyday living. Yosemite High serves a largely rural community, and while its academic scores trail behind state averages, it draws families who prioritize that tight-knit, small-town school experience where kids tend to know their teachers and neighbors by name. Families relocating to the area for the scenery and slower pace of foothill living will find a school that reflects the community around it — modest in size, rooted in place, and surrounded by some of the most stunning landscape in the state.
