Summary:

The High Technical Middle North County District has one listed school, High Technical Middle North County, serving grades 6–8 with 341 students. Its 2025–2026 results were above California’s in all three reported subjects: 68% in English language arts (ELA), 47% in math, and 53% in science, compared with state rates of 49%, 38%, and 36%. The most important finding is that the school was ahead of the state in every subject, with its largest advantage in ELA.

Within the school, 8th-grade ELA stands out most: 81% of students were proficient, 31 percentage points above the state rate of 49%. The lowest result shown was 6th-grade math, at 39%, though that was still 2 points above the state’s 37%; 7th- and 8th-grade math were higher, at 53% and 50%. The school’s all-grades gaps over the state were 19 points in ELA, 17 in science, and 9 in math. Because only one school is listed, there is no meaningful school-to-school comparison or basis for identifying a district-wide leader or trailer.

Results improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, especially in science: the school rose from 34% to 53%, while the state rose from 33% to 36%, widening the school’s advantage by 16 points. ELA increased by about 1 point and math by 2 points, with both remaining above the state. SchoolDigger’s percentile ranking moved from 81 to 79 to 82 across the three reported years, while its rating stayed at 4 stars. Other context includes a 16.2 student–teacher ratio, chronic absenteeism of 1% versus 18% statewide, and 52% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; California provides free meals statewide, so the eligibility figure is not a measure of whether students can receive meals.
