Summary:
Redlands Unified has four middle schools—Cope, Beattie, Clement, and Moore—all serving grades six through eight. In 2025–26, the schools’ average proficiency was 46% in English language arts (ELA), 33% in math, and 29% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38%, and 36%. The average was below the state in every subject, with the largest gap in science; only Cope was above the state, in ELA. The clearest area-wide concern is that students’ results fell further behind the state in all three subjects.
Cope stood out in ELA and math, with 50% proficient in ELA and 36% in math—the highest results among the four schools and about 5 and 4 points above the other schools’ averages. Moore led in science at 34%, about 7 points above the other schools’ average, though it ranked third among the four in ELA and math. Clement was lowest in all three subjects: 43% in ELA, 27% in math, and 26% in science. Its math result was 9 points below the average for the other schools, the largest such gap.
Results declined overall from 2024–25 to 2025–26: the schools’ average fell 2 points in ELA, 1 point in math, and 6 points in science, while state results rose in each subject. Cope was the only school to improve in both ELA and math; all four schools’ science results fell. SchoolDigger’s percentile rank for Clement dropped from 61 to 43 between 2023–24 and 2025–26, the largest decline. Enrollment, staffing, and reported free/reduced lunch eligible rates do not mirror achievement simply: Cope had the highest student–teacher ratio (22.4 in 2024–25) but led ELA and math, while Moore had the lowest ratio (19.6) and led science. The 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible rates were 63.3% at Cope and 63.2% at Beattie, yet their subject strengths differed.
