Summary

Temple (Roger W.) Intermediate is a 297-student school serving grades 7–8 in Rosemead, California. Eighth-grade results are stronger than seventh-grade results: proficiency is 10 percentage points higher in ELA and 7 points higher in math. The clearest concern is seventh grade, where Temple trails the nearby grade 7–8 schools Garvey (Richard) Intermediate and Muscatel Middle by an average of 17 points in both ELA and math.

Temple is slightly above the state in all three tested subjects, but its results are not as strong as those of its district or closest grade-span peers. In 2025–2026, Temple’s proficiency was 50% in ELA, 46% in math, and 42% in science, compared with state rates of 49%, 38%, and 36%. It was below the Garvey Elementary district by 3 points in ELA and 7 in math, and 1 point above it in science. Compared with Richard and Muscatel’s average across all grades, Temple was lower by 11 points in ELA, 9 in math, and 4 in science.

Temple’s schoolwide ELA results have weakened: proficiency fell from 57% in 2022–2023 to 50% in 2025–2026, while the state rate rose from 47% to 49%. SchoolDigger gives Temple 3 stars and a statewide percentile of 70 (rank 816 of 2,703) for 2025–2026. Its student–teacher ratio was 16.8 in 2024–2025, the lowest among nearby schools with reported ratios. That year, 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; the measure was 78% on average among nearby schools, and it describes eligibility rather than who receives meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for Special Education Students was at the 31st percentile, compared with the school’s overall 70th percentile. Its English Language Learner Students ranking also changed sharply, rising from the 30th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 84th in 2023–2024.
