Summary:
ZIP code 93960 has one listed middle school, Main Street Middle, serving grades 7–8 in Soledad Unified. It enrolls 754 students and reported a student–teacher ratio of 21.1 in 2024–2025. In 2025–2026, 28% of students were proficient in ELA, 18% in math, and 22% in science, compared with California rates of 49%, 38%, and 36%, respectively. The central takeaway is that the school was below the state in all three subjects, by 21 percentage points in ELA, 21 in math, and 14 in science.
There is no meaningful top-versus-bottom school comparison because Main Street is the only school in the list. Within the school, science stands out as the strongest result relative to California: its 14-point gap was smaller than the 21-point ELA and math gaps, even though the school’s own ELA proficiency rate was higher than its science rate. Grade results also differ by subject: grade 7 ELA was 32%, compared with 24% in grade 8, while grade 8 math was 21%, compared with 14% in grade 7. Chronic absenteeism was a relative bright spot: Main Street’s 17% rate was below the district’s 20% and the state’s 18% in 2025–2026.
Results improved in all three subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, but progress was uneven against the state. Main Street gained 2 percentage points in ELA, 2 in math, and 1 in science; its gaps narrowed by 2 points in ELA and 1 in math, but widened by 2 in science. SchoolDigger gives the school one star and ranks it 2,162 of 2,703 schools, in the 20th percentile, for 2025–2026; its percentile was 25th in 2023–2024, fell to 20th the next year, and stayed there. The school reported 90% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. These figures offer context about the school, but a single-school list cannot show how it compares with other local schools.
