Summary

Southridge Technical Middle is a public middle school serving about 923 students in grades 6-8 within the Fontana Unified School District, operating in a high-need community where three-quarters of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Within its own district, Southridge Technical Middle is a relatively strong performer, often leading other Fontana Unified middle schools like Sequoia Middle and Fontana Middle in subjects like English and science, and it manages student attendance challenges better than the district average. However, the school's overall statewide ranking is in the lower-middle tier, and a significant performance gap exists when compared to schools in neighboring districts, such as the much higher-achieving Heritage Intermediate in the Etiwanda Elementary district, despite similar student demographics.

The school spends more per student than many nearby schools but has one of the highest student-teacher ratios. Its effectiveness varies, with notable strengths in supporting English Learners, while other student groups, such as those in Special Education, perform well below average. For families, the data presents a complex picture: Southridge is a leading option within its home district but lags behind higher-performing schools a short drive away in other districts.
