Summary:
The middle-school list for Ross Valley Elementary contains one school: White Hill Middle, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 601 students. Since it is the only school in the list, there is no local school-to-school comparison. The key finding is that White Hill’s 2025–2026 results were well above California’s in all three reported subjects.
White Hill Middle is technically both the highest- and lowest-performing school in this one-school group, so that distinction does not help compare local options. Against the state, however, its results stand out: ELA proficiency was 81%, compared with 49% statewide, a 32-point advantage; math was 67% versus 38%, a 28-point advantage; and science was 70% versus 36%, a 34-point advantage. The largest state margin was in science and the smallest in math. The school also exceeded state results in every reported grade-level ELA and math result; its largest grade-level ELA margin was 37 points in grade 8, and its largest math margin was 32 points in grade 6.
White Hill’s results rose from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 in all three subjects: 4 points in ELA, 3 in math and 2 in science. Its lead over the state grew by 4 points in ELA and 2 in math, but narrowed by 1 point in science, where the state made a larger gain. SchoolDigger ranked the school 134th of 2,703 statewide in 2025–2026, in the 95th percentile; it ranked 186th of 2,761 in 2024–2025. Context figures include a 17.3 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 12% free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. In 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism was 14% at the school, below the state’s 18% but above the district’s 9%. Because this list includes only one school, it cannot show how White Hill compares with other local schools.
