Summary

Muscatel Middle in Rosemead, California, serves 511 students in grades 7–8 and is one of several middle schools in the surrounding area. Its clearest strength for families is that 2025–2026 proficiency rates in English language arts (ELA), math and science were all above both the state and district.

Compared with the three nearby schools serving the same grades, Muscatel ranked second of four in ELA and math, and third in science. Its rates were 63% in ELA, 58% in math and 48% in science, versus peer averages of 60%, 55% and 49%, respectively; Temple, Garvey and Oak make up that comparison group. Against California, Muscatel was ahead by 14 percentage points in ELA, 20 in math and 12 in science; it also exceeded the Rosemead Elementary district by 6, 3 and 5 points, respectively. Chronic absenteeism was another standout: 2% at Muscatel, compared with 6% in its district and 18% statewide, and the lowest rate among nearby schools.

Results have risen since 2022–2023: ELA increased 1 point, math 7 points and science 10 points. However, the state gap narrowed by 2 points in ELA and widened by 3 in math and 5 in science. SchoolDigger ranked Muscatel in the 85th percentile statewide, with 4 stars, in 2025–2026; its percentile has ranged from 84 to 88 over four years. The student–teacher ratio was 20.9:1 in 2024–2025, and 77% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings point to especially strong relative results for English Language Learner Students: the group reached the 95th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school’s overall 88th percentile that year. For Special Education Students, the ranking fell from the 91st percentile in 2024–2025 to the 47th in 2025–2026, while the overall percentile was 85.
