Summary:

Zip code 93013 contains one middle school, Carpinteria Middle School, serving grades 6-8 within the Carpinteria Unified School District, a district rated above the state average.

Carpinteria Middle presents a mixed academic profile, with test scores generally below both district and state averages, particularly in science and Spanish language arts. A notable trend is that student proficiency tends to decline in 8th grade, with math scores dropping significantly from 7th grade. The school operates with a favorable student-teacher ratio and benefits from a higher-than-average per-student spending level.

Key challenges for the school include a chronic absenteeism rate higher than the state average and a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's statewide ranking is currently in the 53rd percentile, it is supported by a district performing in the 70th percentile, suggesting potential for improvement through targeted support, especially in addressing attendance and 8th-grade academic transitions.
