Summary

Macy Intermediate is a public middle school serving 576 students in grades 6-8 within the Montebello Unified School District in Monterey Park, and it stands out as a strong and improving choice that consistently outperforms other schools in its own district.

The school excels in several key areas: its students score significantly higher in English, math, and science than peers at other Montebello Unified middle schools like Montebello Intermediate, La Merced Intermediate, and Eastmont Intermediate. Perhaps most impressively, Macy has an exceptionally low rate of chronic absenteeism at 3.9%, far better than the district and state averages, which shows a highly engaged student body and effective school programs. The school is also particularly effective in supporting English Language Learners and students from low-income families, achieving these strong results with efficient per-student spending.

While Macy is a leader in its district, two schools in the neighboring Garvey Elementary district, Garvey (Richard) Intermediate and Temple (Roger W.) Intermediate, have higher overall rankings and test scores, though they also operate with significantly higher funding. Compared to nearby charter options, such as Animo Ellen Ochoa Charter Middle or KIPP Sol Academy, Macy generally performs as well or better. Overall, Macy Intermediate demonstrates a clear, sustained record of success and is a compelling option for families in the area.
