Summary

Edna Hill Middle is a well-regarded public school serving about 1,050 students in grades 6-8 within the high-performing Brentwood Union School District, ranking solidly in the top quarter of all California middle schools.

Academically, the school consistently beats state averages, with particular strength in science, and provides exceptionally effective support for several student groups. Within its own district, Edna Hill is a steady, middle-performing option: it significantly outpaces William B. Bristow Middle but trails the top-ranked Adams (J. Douglas) Middle, especially in mathematics. This "Brentwood advantage" is clear, as all three district middle schools outperform those in neighboring areas like the Antioch Unified and Oakley Union Elementary districts by a wide margin.

The school's main opportunity for growth lies in improving student attendance, as its chronic absenteeism rate is higher than its district peers. Focusing on math achievement and ensuring consistent support for all student programs could help close the gap with the district's highest performer. Overall, Edna Hill is a school on an upward trajectory, delivering strong and cost-effective educational outcomes for its community.
