Summary:
The Santiago Middle District in California has one public charter middle school, Santiago Middle, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 1,079 students. While the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, ranking between 809 and 1,155 out of over 2,700 California middle schools, its academic results are mixed compared to state averages.
Santiago Middle performs slightly above the state average in English Language Arts/Literacy, but falls below the state average in Mathematics proficiency across different grade levels and test years. However, the school's Science (CAST) proficiency rates are above the state average. With a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (66.08%) and a chronic absenteeism rate of 27.1%, the school may face challenges in addressing the unique needs of its student population.
Overall, the analysis of Santiago Middle highlights both strengths and areas for improvement. While the school's performance on standardized tests is variable, addressing factors such as low Mathematics proficiency and high chronic absenteeism could be priorities for the district and school leadership to support student success and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all learners.
