Summary

William G. Jehue Middle is a large public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Colton, CA, with 1,444 students and a history of steady academic improvement within the Rialto Unified School District.

The school has shown a clear and consistent upward trend, moving from a low statewide ranking several years ago to a more competitive position today, now outperforming its district peers like Warren F. Frisbie Middle in most subjects. A notable strength is its effectiveness with specific student groups, such as African American and homeless students, who perform well above the school's overall average. The school also excels in English Language Arts, especially by the 8th grade, and has made significant progress in reducing chronic student absences, which are now lower than at several nearby schools including Rialto Middle and Martin Luther King Junior Middle.

While mathematics and science remain challenges across the region, Jehue achieves its improving results with relatively efficient use of resources, spending less per student than some comparison schools. The presence of the exceptionally high-performing Richardson PREP High Middle magnet school nearby highlights the academic potential in the area. Overall, William G. Jehue Middle stands out in its district as a school on a positive trajectory, demonstrating particular strengths in supporting vulnerable populations and fostering growth in English skills.
