Summary:
Menlo Park City Elementary has one listed middle school, Hillview Middle, which serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 846 students. In 2025–2026, Hillview’s proficiency was 79% in English Language Arts, 75% in math, and 72% in science; those results were respectively 30, 37, and 36 percentage points above California’s rates. The key takeaway is that Hillview performed substantially above the state in every reported subject.
There is no top or bottom school to compare within this group: Hillview is the only school listed, so it is not meaningfully a peer-group leader. Its state advantage also holds across grades: 27–31 points in ELA and 37–39 points in math. Compared with the district’s all-grades results, Hillview was 1 point lower in ELA, 3 points lower in math, and 1 point lower in science; grade-matched district results, however, match Hillview’s exactly. SchoolDigger rates the district 5 stars and ranks it 23rd of 968 districts, in the 98th percentile. These district rankings do not compare Hillview with other middle schools in the list.
Hillview’s scores rose in all three subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, with the clearest gain in science: up 5 percentage points. ELA and math rose only slightly, while state results improved faster in those subjects; Hillview’s science lead over the state widened. SchoolDigger ranked Hillview 92nd of 2,703 schools in 2025–2026, up 11 places from the prior year, and its percentile rose from 96th to 97th. Other context includes a 15.5 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 11% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 7% at Hillview in 2025–2026, compared with 5% districtwide and 18% statewide. Because only one middle school is listed, the data cannot show meaningful differences among local middle schools.
