Summary

Quimby Oak Middle serves grades 7–8 in San Jose and enrolls 857 students, the largest enrollment among the nearby schools listed. The most important finding is that its 2025–26 proficiency rates were above California and the Evergreen Elementary district in all three tested subjects, though two nearby schools serving the same grades scored higher in each.

Quimby’s strongest comparison is with the state: 65% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 60% in math and 55% in science—about 16, 22 and 19 percentage points above California, respectively. It also edged the district in all three subjects, by about 1 point in ELA and 2 in science, and by a fraction of a point in math. Among six nearby schools serving grades 7–8, Quimby ranked third in each subject, behind Chaboya Middle and College Connection Academy. One grade-specific concern is eighth-grade ELA: its 63% proficiency rate was below the district’s eighth-grade result, while seventh-grade ELA was above its district comparison.

Results have moved unevenly over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell 4 percentage points as California’s rate rose 3, narrowing Quimby’s lead over the state by 6 points; math rose 4 points, while science slipped 1 as the state gained 6. SchoolDigger ranked Quimby 339th of 2,703 schools, at the 87th percentile and 4 stars in 2025–26, down from the 92nd percentile and 5 stars in 2023–24. Context includes a 19.9 student-teacher ratio and 31% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure for Asian Students was at the 56th percentile in 2025–26, down from 70 in 2023–24 and below Quimby’s overall 87th percentile; its Multi-racial Students measure rose from the 56th percentile in 2024–25 to 72 in 2025–26.

What people are saying
by a parent
Friday, June 28, 2019

Open Quote As a parent in year 2018-9 that this school needs to work on communication home to parents. They use teams and it is hard to understand what is going on. Also, I think this school has not figured out well how to use project-based learning teams. Two schools on site, one is Lobo School of Innovation and I am not sure but I believe there is vast grade inflation there and textbooks are not really used much at all, you can inquire for yourself. The other school, the traditional school, in my opinion, has excellent teachers who are seasoned and often retiring. These older teachers make up the best part about Quimby but I think the combining of the two schools is not working well. The project-based learning is experimental and used too much. Those are my opinions as a parent. Close Quote
