Summary

Redwood Middle is a public school serving 589 students in grades 6-8 in Thousand Oaks, part of the consistently strong Conejo Valley Unified district, and it ranks solidly in the top 20% of all California middle schools.

Academically, the school is a steady performer, maintaining a 4-star rating for a decade and beating state averages in all core subjects, with a particular strength in English Language Arts. However, when compared to other schools in its own district, such as higher-performing Los Cerritos Middle or the exceptional Medea Creek Middle in the neighboring Oak Park Unified district, Redwood's math and science scores are lower. The school shows effective support for some student groups but faces a clear challenge in improving mathematics achievement, especially by 8th grade.

Notable trends for parents to consider include a recent increase in chronic absenteeism, which, while below the state average, is now higher than the district's, and a growing percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite a significant increase in per-student spending in recent years, academic results have remained stable, suggesting the school is working to maintain its position amidst these changing dynamics.
