Summary

George V. LeyVa Intermediate is a public middle school in San Jose, California, serving 547 students in grades 7-8 as part of the Evergreen Elementary School District. While the school maintains an average 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, it has consistently ranked in the middle range of California middle schools over the past decade.

Academically, George V. LeyVa Intermediate struggles to keep pace with its peers. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science fall below both the district and state averages. However, the school does perform relatively well for Multi-racial students and English Language Learners. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, with rates ranging from 11.9% to 24.9% in recent years. The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 39-56%, may contribute to these academic challenges.

Interestingly, nearby schools show a wide range of performance. Quimby Oak Middle, another Evergreen Elementary District school, significantly outperforms George V. LeyVa Intermediate. In contrast, schools in the neighboring Alum Rock Union Elementary and Franklin-McKinley Elementary districts, such as Renaissance Academy and Sylvandale Middle, perform well below George V. LeyVa Intermediate and the state averages. Additionally, several high-performing charter schools, including College Connection Academy, Kipp Prize Preparatory Academy, and Kipp Heartwood Academy, are located within a 2-mile radius of George V. LeyVa Intermediate and consistently outperform the school and state averages.
