Colina Middle is a grade 6–8 school in Thousand Oaks, California, with 832 students. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were 62% in English language arts (ELA), 50% in mathematics, and 48% in science. The key takeaway for families is that Colina scored above California in all three subjects, but below its district in all three.

Colina is around the middle of the nearby group in ELA and ranks fifth among 11 schools in both mathematics and science; its ELA rank is sixth. Its results were just above the nearby-school averages—61% in ELA, 49% in mathematics, and 47% in science—but local leaders scored higher. For example, Los Cerritos Middle scored 72%, 64%, and 58%, while Medea Creek Middle scored 79%, 72%, and 76%.

Over that period, its advantage over the state narrowed by 1 point in ELA and 2 in mathematics.
