Summary

Windsor Middle is a public middle school serving about 735 students in grades 6-8 in the Windsor Unified district, performing around the middle of all California schools with a 3-star rating for the current year.

Compared to other local middle schools with similar student demographics, Windsor Middle shows relative strength in supporting its students, nearly half of whom are from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. It outperforms nearby schools like Herbert Slater Middle and Santa Rosa Middle, which serve similar populations. The school benefits from a lower student-teacher ratio than many neighbors, such as Rincon Valley Middle, allowing for more personalized attention. However, its academic proficiency rates in English, math, and science are currently slightly below the state average.

Key areas for parents to note include a recent, sharp increase in chronic student absenteeism, which is now higher than the district and state averages. Performance also varies significantly between grades, with 6th graders struggling the most, suggesting a challenging transition into middle school. While the school spends more per student than several comparison schools, its academic results are similar to Rincon Valley Middle, which operates with fewer resources, indicating a focus on how resources are used may be important for future improvement.
