Summary:
In the 93933 zip code of Marina, California, there is one public middle school, Los Arboles Middle, serving grades 7 and 8 within the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District.
Los Arboles Middle shows a very positive trend of improvement, having risen significantly in statewide rankings over the past three years from the 20th to the 38th percentile. However, current academic proficiency in English and Math remains below both district and state averages. A notable concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.2%, which is substantially higher than the district average and likely impacts student learning.
The school has considerable resources, spending over $21,500 per student, and serves a student population where a majority are economically disadvantaged. While the upward ranking trajectory is encouraging, addressing attendance and focusing on mathematics instruction, particularly for 8th graders, appear to be key areas where targeted support could help the school continue its progress and better serve its community.
