When compared to other nearby middle schools, such as Park View Middle and Mesa View Middle in the Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified School District, San Gorgonio Middle generally performs worse, with higher chronic absenteeism and lower test scores.

Additionally, San Gorgonio Middle has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 21.9 in 2022-2023, which is higher than the nearby schools in the Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified School District and may impact the school's ability to provide personalized attention to students.
