Summary:
The High Technical Middle Media Arts District in San Diego, California is home to a single public charter middle school, High Technical Middle Media Arts, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 341 students. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science falling below the state averages, particularly in the upper middle school grades.
High Technical Middle Media Arts stands out for its strong 6th grade English Language Arts performance, exceeding the state average, but struggles in Mathematics and Science, where proficiency rates are significantly lower than the California state averages. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 28%, which is likely contributing to the lower academic outcomes. Additionally, over 37% of students at the school receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
The school's ranking and rating have fluctuated in recent years, with a decline in the 2021-2022 school year followed by an improvement in the current year. Addressing the attendance and academic performance issues, particularly in the upper middle school grades, will be crucial for High Technical Middle Media Arts to achieve more consistent and stronger outcomes for its diverse student body.
