Summary:
Dublin Unified School District serves middle school students (grades 6-8) in the Dublin, California area with two schools, both of which perform well above state averages, creating a strong academic environment for families.
Eleanor Murray Fallon Middle School is the district's top performer, ranking in the top 2% of all California middle schools with exceptional test scores in English, math, and science, and a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 4%. Wells Middle School also performs well, ranking in the top 15% statewide, though its academic results are consistently lower than Fallon's across all subjects, particularly in science and upper-grade math, and it has a higher rate of chronic absenteeism.
An interesting finding is that Wells receives more funding per student than Fallon, yet a significant performance gap remains. Both schools contribute to the high standing of the Dublin Unified district overall, which ranks in the 91st percentile in the state. For parents, this means both schools are strong choices, with Fallon demonstrating standout academic achievement and attendance, while Wells, serving a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, shows solid performance with greater per-student resources.
