Summary:
ZIP code 92373 has one middle school, Cope Middle, serving grades 6–8 in the Redlands Unified district, with 1,191 students. In 2025–2026, Cope’s English language arts (ELA) result was 50%, just above the state’s 49%; math was 36%, 2 percentage points below the state’s 38%; and science was 27%, 9 points below the state’s 36% and 6 points below the district’s 34%. The most important finding is the sharp science reversal: Cope went from 1 point above the state in 2024–2025 to 9 points below it the following year.
Because Cope is the area’s only middle school, there are no local schools to rank against one another; it is both the area’s sole standout and its only option in this data. ELA is its strongest latest all-grade result relative to the state, while science is the clearest weak spot. Results also vary substantially by grade: seventh grade was 5 points above the state in ELA (55% versus 51%) and 4 points above in math (41% versus 38%). Eighth grade was below the state in all three reported subjects: 5 points in ELA (44% versus 49%), 6 points in math (30% versus 36%), and 8 points in science (27% versus 35%).
ELA and math improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, rising 2 and 4 percentage points, respectively; their gaps against the state also improved by 1 and 3 points. Science moved the other way: Cope fell 7 points as the state rose 3, worsening Cope’s state gap by 10 points. SchoolDigger gives Cope 3 stars and ranks it 1,119th of 2,703 schools, at the 59th percentile in 2025–2026; its percentile was also 59 in 2024–2025, after falling 7 points from 2023–2024. Chronic absenteeism was 25% in 2025–2026, compared with 21% districtwide and 18% statewide. For context, the student–teacher ratio was 22.4 in 2024–2025, and 63% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year.
