Summary

Silverado Middle is a public school serving about 670 students in grades 6-8 within the Napa Valley Unified district, but it faces significant academic challenges, ranking in the bottom quarter of all California middle schools.

The school's test scores in English, math, and science are the lowest among its nearby district peers, including Unidos Middle, American Canyon Middle, and Redwood Middle. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with nearly 32% of students missing too much school, a rate much higher than surrounding schools. While Silverado has a smaller average class size and spends more per student than these comparison schools, these resources have not yet translated into stronger academic results.

Performance has declined over the past decade, with a particularly sharp drop in 7th-grade scores. The school's effectiveness in supporting its largest student groups has been inconsistent from year to year. For parents, the key points are that the school is actively working with a high-need population, but its current academic outcomes and student attendance rates are areas requiring urgent improvement and district support.
