Summary:
ZIP code 95334 has one middle school, Livingston Middle, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 809 students. In 2025–2026, its results were below California’s in all three core subjects: 32% in ELA versus 49% statewide, 17% in math versus 38%, and 23% in science versus 36%. Its equally weighted average across the three subjects was 24%, compared with 41% statewide, a 17-point difference. The most important finding for families is that math has the largest state gap, at 21 points, while every core subject remains below the state.
Because there is only one school in the area, there is no local top-to-bottom school comparison. Within Livingston Middle, science is the relative bright spot: its 23% proficiency was 13 points below the state, the smallest gap among the three subjects, and 2 points above the result for Livingston Union. ELA was 18 points below California, and math was 21 points below. Grade-level results show a smaller ELA state gap in grade 6 (36% versus 48%, a 12-point gap) than in grades 7 and 8 (28% versus 51%, and 30% versus 49%). Math gaps were more similar across grades, at 19–20 points.
ELA improved more than the state from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: Livingston Middle gained 4 points, compared with less than 1 point statewide, narrowing its ELA gap by 3 points. Math rose by less than 1 point while the state gained 1, and science rose by less than 1 point while the state gained 3; those gaps widened by 1 and 3 points, respectively. SchoolDigger places the school at the 23rd percentile with a one-star rating in 2025–2026, up from the 22nd percentile in 2023–2024; its listed rank is 2,084 of 2,703. Chronic absenteeism was 15%, below the state’s 18% but above the district’s 13%. As context, the school’s student-teacher ratio was 22.7 in 2024–2025, and 76% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year; these figures alone do not establish a relationship with achievement.
