Chaboya Middle consistently ranks among the top 2% of California middle schools, with a ranking as high as 34th out of over 2,400 schools in 2014-2015. Its students demonstrate exceptional academic achievement, with 82.62% proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy and 76.46% proficient or better in Mathematics for the 2023-2024 school year.

Chaboya Middle has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past decade, indicating it is among the top-performing schools in the state.

Compared to nearby schools, such as George V. LeyVa Intermediate and Quimby Oak Middle, Chaboya Middle significantly outperforms them in both academic achievement and statewide rankings. However, the school's ranking for Hispanic students has declined from the 375th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 1,050th percentile in 2021-2022, which is an area of concern that the school should investigate and address. Additionally, Chaboya Middle serves a more affluent student population compared to its neighbors in the Alum Rock Union Elementary and Franklin-McKinley Elementary districts, with a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (14.42% in 2022-2023).

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
