Summary:
Zip code 95470 in Redwood Valley, California, contains one public middle school, Eagle Peak Middle, which serves grades 5-8 within the Ukiah Unified district.
Eagle Peak Middle serves a community with high economic need, where over three-quarters of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's academic performance is below both district and state averages in English, math, and science, with a notable and concerning trend of declining scores as students progress from 5th to 8th grade. Furthermore, the school's statewide ranking has fallen over the past three years.
A significant challenge for the school is chronic absenteeism, with over 27% of students missing too much school, a rate much higher than the state average. This likely impacts learning outcomes. Interestingly, the school spends more per student than the typical California average, yet academic results remain below par, suggesting a need to examine how resources are used to support student achievement and attendance.
