In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (44%), Mathematics (27%), and Science (34%) were higher than the Carlsbad district averages (37%, 25%, and 33%, respectively) but lower than the state averages (39%, 25%, and 36%). The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 67 out of 193 middle schools in 2012-2013 (3 stars) to 149 out of 232 in 2021-2022 (2 stars).

The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with female students consistently outperforming male students and Asian students performing exceptionally well. However, African American and White students, as well as English Language Learners and Special Education students, have struggled, performing below average. Additionally, despite the relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's performance for this subgroup has been below average, indicating that socioeconomic factors may still be a significant barrier to academic success. These disparities in subgroup performance suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors contributing to the observed academic outcomes.

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.
