Summary

Lewis Flamson Junior High is a public school for 7th and 8th graders in the Paso Robles Joint Unified School District, serving a large student body of 884 children in the North County area.

Academically, the school is currently rated average statewide, but its test scores in English, math, and science are lower than those at nearby schools like Fine Arts Academy, Atascadero Middle, and Templeton Middle. A notable concern is that student performance in English tends to drop from 7th to 8th grade. The school also has a higher rate of chronic student absences than the state average, which can impact learning.

Lewis Flamson serves a community with greater economic needs than its neighbors, and it spends more per student. Despite these resources, academic results have declined over the past few years. The school shows significant performance gaps between different groups of students, and support for English Learners and students in special education has been inconsistent. While facing clear challenges, the school's slightly smaller class sizes and focused spending indicate efforts are being made to support its students within the Paso Robles Joint Unified district.
