Summary
Silverado Middle serves 1,010 students in grades 6–8 in Roseville, California, in the Dry Creek Joint Elementary district. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were above California’s in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but the most important concern is math: Silverado scored below its district and had only a modest edge over nearby middle schools.
ELA and science are stronger areas. Silverado’s proficiency was 64% in ELA, 44% in math and 53% in science; those results were 14, 5 and 17 percentage points above the state, respectively. Compared with its district, Silverado was 6 points higher in ELA and 4 higher in science, but 3 points lower in math. Against nearby schools serving grades 6–8, it exceeded the average by 10 points in ELA, 3 in math and 10 in science. It ranked second among those seven schools in ELA, but fourth in math and science. Its sixth-grade math result was more encouraging: 48%, above both the state and district, and second among nearby schools with reported results.
Results have varied over time rather than rising steadily: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell by 2 points overall despite a 7-point rebound in the latest year, math declined by 3 points, and science stayed about level. Silverado remains well above state proficiency, though its state gaps narrowed over that period. SchoolDigger rates it 4 stars, at the 79th statewide percentile; nearby Olympus Junior High ranks higher at the 94th percentile. In 2024–25, Silverado’s student–teacher ratio was 24.3, among the highest reported locally, and 34% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. One notable SchoolDigger subgroup result is special education: Silverado ranked at the 67th percentile in 2025–26, down from the 86th percentile in 2023–24, while its overall percentile was 79.
