Summary:

ZIP code 92283 has one middle school, San Pasqual Middle, serving grades 6–8 with 125 students. Its 2025–26 proficiency was 30% in English language arts (ELA), 10% in math, and 6% in science; the school was close to San Pasqual Valley Unified in each subject, but California’s results were much higher. The most important takeaway is that San Pasqual remained below the state in all three subjects, by 20 percentage points in ELA, 28 in math, and 30 in science.

There is no top or bottom school among local peers because San Pasqual is the only school listed. ELA is its strongest subject relative to California: 30% proficient compared with 49% statewide, a 20-point shortfall; in math, the figures were 10% and 38%, and in science, 6% and 36%. ELA was also the only subject in which the school was above its district, by 2 points (30% versus 28%). Within the school, grade 8 math stands out as a concern: 3% were proficient, compared with 14% in grade 7 and 13% in grade 6. ELA results were more consistent across grades, at 28%–31%.

Results improved year over year in all three subjects, with the largest gains in ELA and math: proficiency rose 8 points in ELA, 8 in math, and 4 in science from 2024–25 to 2025–26. The gaps with California narrowed by 8 points in ELA, 7 in math, and 1 in science, though they remained substantial. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking improved from the 4th percentile in 2023–24 to the 11th percentile in 2025–26, when the school ranked 2,416 of 2,703 schools and received one star; it remains low statewide. As context, the school reported 94% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25 and a student–teacher ratio of 12.3:1 that year. Chronic absenteeism was 26% in 2025–26, above the state’s 18%.
