of 2,740 California Middle Schools

Better than 90% of California middle schools

Summary

Presidio Middle serves 992 students in grades 6–8 in San Francisco, within the San Francisco Unified district. Its most important finding is that 2025–2026 proficiency was higher than both district and state results in all three subjects: 74% in English language arts (ELA), 61% in math, and 58% in science, versus 54%, 46%, and 44% districtwide and 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide.

Presidio is a strong local performer, though not the top scorer: among eight nearby district middle schools with 2025–2026 results, it ranked third in ELA, math, and science. Its scores were 22, 19, and 18 percentage points above those schools’ respective averages. ELA is its strongest subject against local, district, and state comparisons; science is relatively weakest, but still above each benchmark. Giannini (A.P.) Middle and Roosevelt Middle scored higher in all three subjects. Within Presidio, seventh grade led in ELA and math, with proficiency 14 and 15 points above sixth grade, respectively.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: ELA rose 8 percentage points and math 11, while science increased 4 points overall despite a dip and subsequent rebound. SchoolDigger rates Presidio five stars and places it 260th of 2,703 California schools, in the 90th percentile. Its student-teacher ratio was 20.7 in 2024–2025, and 40% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s Asian Students standing rose from the 34th to the 55th percentile between 2023–2024 and 2025–2026, still below the school’s overall 90th percentile. Its African American Students ranking fell from the 78th percentile in 2017–2018 to the 48th in 2022–2023; those supplied years are not consecutive.
