This school stands out for its consistently strong science program, with 71% of 5th graders proficient in the most recent year—outpacing both the district (66%) and state (60%) averages.

In math, Middleburg has shown a remarkable comeback after a dip in 2023-2024, with scores surging in 2024-2025 (e.g., 82% in 3rd grade) before settling to still-solid levels above district and state averages. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (24%) than the district (26.7%) and state (31.4%) averages, and it spends efficiently at $10,554 per student—less than nearby schools like Ridgeview Elementary School ($13,418) and Coppergate Elementary School ($11,823).

Middleburg's performance in English Language Arts and math can vary from year to year and across grade levels, which is something to keep in mind.
