Summary:

Zip code 92029 contains one public middle school, Del Dios Academy of Arts and Sciences, serving grades 6-8 with 788 students in the Escondido Union district.

Del Dios Academy serves a student population with very high economic need, with over 91% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Academically, the school performs below both its district and state averages across English, math, and science, with science scores showing the largest gap. A significant concern is the chronic absenteeism rate of 26.2%, which is notably higher than the averages for the district and California.

The school has shown consistent performance trends over the past three years, ranking in the bottom quartile of California middle schools. While per-student funding and class size are comparable to many schools, the data suggests families should consider the school's challenges with attendance and academic achievement, particularly in science, within the context of the broader Escondido Union district, which itself ranks in the lower half of the state.
