C. T. English Middle

Summary:

C. T. English Middle is a public middle school located in Los Gatos, CA, serving grades 6-8 with 167 students. It is part of the Loma Prieta Joint Union Elementary District, which is ranked 94 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. C. T. 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. The school also performs exceptionally well across different student subgroups, ranking 138th out of 2,547 California middle schools for male students and 139th out of 1,535 schools for white students in English Language Arts. 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.

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.
