Summary

Hobbs Middle School is a public middle school in Milton, Florida, serving 724 students in grades 6-8. It is part of the Santa Rosa school district, which is ranked 20th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Hobbs Middle School consistently outperforms the Santa Rosa district and the state of Florida in several key test score metrics, including End-of-Course (EOC) Algebra 1 and Civics. However, the school's 8th grade science proficiency rates lag behind the district and state averages. Additionally, Hobbs Middle School has a higher chronic absenteeism rate (20-31%) compared to the state average, which may be impacting student performance. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students (60-63%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Compared to nearby schools, Hobbs Middle School's performance is generally stronger than the Bellview Middle and J.H. Workman Middle schools in the Escambia district, which have lower test scores and rankings. However, Hobbs lags behind the higher-performing schools in the Santa Rosa district, such as Holley-Navarre Middle and Woodlawn Beach Middle, which have 4-star ratings and stronger academic outcomes.
