Summary:
Zip code 95626 contains one middle school, Alpha Technology Middle, serving grades 6-8 with a small enrollment of 59 students within the Elverta Joint Elementary district.
This school presents a mixed picture for families. On a positive note, it maintains a better student attendance record than both its district and the state average, suggesting a committed school community. However, academic performance is a significant concern, as proficiency rates in English, math, and science are all substantially below California state averages. A particularly unusual and troubling pattern is that while English scores improve with each grade, math proficiency drops sharply, with only about 5% of 8th graders testing as proficient.
Alpha Technology Middle operates with resources similar to many state schools but within a district that faces systemic challenges. Its state ranking has been volatile in recent years, often placing in the lower percentiles. For parents, this indicates a school environment where a student's experience, particularly in core subjects like mathematics, may be inconsistent and not on track with broader academic standards, despite the potential benefits of its small size and focus on technology.
