Summary

Leon H. Ollivier Middle serves 1,152 students in grades 6–8 in Bakersfield and is part of Greenfield Union. It is the largest of the nearby schools in the comparison. The school’s clearest strengths are English language arts (ELA) and science, but the most important academic concern is that math remains below the state level.

In 2025–2026, Ollivier scored 55% in ELA and 39% in science, above state results of 49% and 36%, respectively, and district results of 44% and 30%. Among ten nearby schools with scores, it ranked third in ELA, second in math, and highest in science; its results were also above the nearby-school averages in all three subjects. Math, at 31%, was 8 points below the state’s 38%, although it was 3 points above the district and well ahead of the nearby average of 17%. The shortfall appeared in every grade, with the largest state gap in grade 7.

Over four years, science rose by about 2 points, ELA edged down by less than 1 point, and math fell by about 1 point. The math gap with the state widened from 4 points to 8, while the ELA and science advantages narrowed. SchoolDigger rates Ollivier at 3 stars, ranking it 1,022 of 2,703 schools, in the 62nd percentile for 2025–2026; its percentile has stayed close to 61–62 over the past two years, below its 71st-percentile peak in 2022–2023. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 23.8, higher than the 16.1–21.9 range at nearby schools. Also in 2024–2025, 94% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch, a high share compared with nearby schools. In SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well it serves student groups, Ollivier ranked in the 88th percentile for Homeless Students, versus 62nd overall; for Special Education Students, it ranked in the 26th percentile, down 23 points from each of the prior two years.
