Summary
Miwok Middle serves 1,181 students in grades 7–8 in Sacramento, California, among several nearby middle schools. Its strongest headline is that 2025–2026 proficiency was higher than both state and district results in every tested subject: 72% in English Language Arts (ELA), compared with 49% statewide and 41% in the district; 58% in math, compared with 38% and 32%; and 59% in science, compared with 36% and 30%.
Miwok also led nearby schools in all three subjects. Among schools serving grades 7–8, nearby averages were 33% in ELA, 21% in math, and 18% in science; Miwok was ahead by 40, 37, and 40 percentage points, respectively. Its leads over the next-highest nearby all-grades result were 21 points in ELA, 23 in math, and 23 in science. Math is Miwok’s least strong subject relative to the state and district, but its results are still well above nearby comparisons. Eighth graders also outperformed seventh graders in ELA and math: 76% versus 69% in ELA and 59% versus 57% in math.
Results have changed unevenly over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA was nearly flat, math rose by 4 points, and science increased by 14 points, including a 13-point jump in the latest year. Miwok was ranked by SchoolDigger at the 90th percentile with four stars in 2025–2026, compared with nearby California Middle at the 60th percentile and three stars. Attendance is another bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 15%, below the state’s 18% and the district’s 27%. One context for families is that Miwok’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 25.9, higher than nearby schools’ range of 17.8 to 23.2; its reported free/reduced lunch eligible share that year was 33%, below the nearby range of 46% to 97%. SchoolDigger’s African American Students ranking was at the 57th percentile in 2025–2026, 33 points below Miwok’s overall percentile, and had declined 26 points since 2023–2024; this is SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves that group.
