Summary:
Middletown Unified has one middle school, Middletown Middle, serving about 320 students in grades 6 through 8 in the Middletown Unified district.
Academic performance at the school is mixed, with some bright spots but overall results below state averages. Seventh graders excel in English, scoring above the state average, but performance dips in eighth grade, especially in science where proficiency is notably low. Math scores across all grades are below state benchmarks. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, currently placing it in the middle of all California schools.
A major area of concern is student attendance, with chronic absenteeism at 34%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This likely impacts learning across all subjects. While the school spends over $14,000 per student, academic outcomes suggest a need to ensure these resources are effectively addressing core challenges like attendance and supporting subjects where students struggle most.
