Summary

Taylor Middle serves 756 students in grades 6–8 in Millbrae, California, and is part of the Millbrae Elementary district. In 2025–2026, students reached 67% proficiency in English language arts (ELA), 60% in math, and 59% in science. The clearest takeaway is that Taylor performs well above state averages in all three subjects, with science its standout strength.

Compared with nearby schools serving the same grades, Taylor ranks fourth of 11 in ELA and math, and second in science; its results are about 11 points above the nearby-school average in ELA and math and 17 points above it in science. Only Crocker Middle scored higher in science. Taylor’s scores are also above state averages by 17 points in ELA, 22 in math, and 23 in science. Compared with its district, Taylor is 2 points higher in ELA and 3 points higher in science, but 2 points lower in math. Math is therefore its relative weak spot, though its score remains well above the state and nearby-school averages.

Results rose overall from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026: ELA increased by 2 points, math by 4, and science by 8, though progress was not steady each year. SchoolDigger places Taylor at the 88th statewide percentile with 4 stars; it is tied with Lipman and below Crocker and Burlingame Intermediate. Context includes a student-teacher ratio of 22.3 in 2024–2025, the highest reported among nearby schools, and 19% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking suggests a weaker relative standing in how Taylor serves Hispanic students: the group ranked at the 44th percentile in 2025–2026, 44 points below the school overall and down 15 points from the prior year.
