English Middle has consistently been ranked among the top middle schools in California, ranking as high as 75th out of over 2,200 schools in 2011-2012.
C. T. English Middle consistently outperforms the state and its district on standardized tests, with 71.88% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 66.88% proficient or better in Mathematics in 2023-2024, compared to the state averages of 47.04% and 35.54% respectively.

Additionally, C. T. English Middle has maintained very low chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 0% to 14.8% over the past several years, significantly lower than the state average. However, the school's relatively affluent student population, with only 7.19% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, is worth noting.
While C. T. English Middle outperforms the state and its own district, it is not the highest-performing school in the immediate area. Schools like Union Middle and Raymond J. Fisher Middle, both within 10 miles, have even higher academic achievement and rankings. Additionally, C. T. English Middle saw a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 0% in 2017-2018 to 14.8% in 2022-2023, which is an area that warrants further investigation. Overall, C. T. English Middle is a high-performing middle school, but its relative affluence compared to nearby schools and the recent increase in chronic absenteeism are areas that require further exploration and potential improvement.
