Summary:
In the 94133 zip code of San Francisco, there is one public middle school, Francisco Middle School, serving grades 6 through 8 in the San Francisco Unified district.
Francisco Middle School consistently ranks in the middle of all California schools, with a three-star rating. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English, math, and science are below both the district and state averages. However, a positive trend is that students show clear growth from 6th to 8th grade, with math and English scores improving each year. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of about 16 to 1, which can allow for more individual attention.
The school serves a high-need community, with about 74% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and it receives significant funding, spending over $25,000 per student. A key area for improvement is chronic absenteeism, where 26% of students miss too much school, a rate higher than the state average. While the school performs adequately given its context, focusing on attendance and strengthening its science program could help raise overall student achievement.
