Summary:
Vallejo City Unified School District contains one middle school, Hogan Middle, serving grades 6-8 in a district facing significant academic and attendance challenges.
Academic performance at Hogan Middle is well below state averages, with only about 26% of students proficient in English and 16% in math, which is roughly half the statewide rate. The school also struggles with chronic absenteeism, with about one in three students missing a significant amount of school, a rate much higher than the California average. Despite these outcomes, the Vallejo City Unified district spends over $25,000 per student at this school, which is notably higher than typical state spending.
Performance trends over the past three years show consistent difficulty, with the school's statewide ranking falling to the 16th percentile. Its results are very similar to the Vallejo City Unified district averages, indicating these are district-wide challenges. For parents, this means the single middle school option in the district is underperforming academically with serious attendance issues, though it is funded at a high level.
