Summary:
ZIP code 62640 has two schools in North Mac CUSD 34: North Mac Intermediate, serving grades 3–5, and North Mac Middle School, serving grades 6–8; each enrolls about 225 students. The most important takeaway is that both schools are well below state averages in the latest all-grades ELA and math results: their average proficiency is 39% in ELA and 21% in math, compared with 56% and 40% statewide.
The schools’ relative strengths differ by subject: North Mac Middle leads in ELA at 40%, 2 percentage points above North Mac Intermediate at 38%, while Intermediate leads in math at 26%, 10 points above Middle at 16%. Both schools are below state results in both subjects; Middle’s math result is 24 points below the state, while Intermediate’s ELA result is 18 points below. Because the schools serve different grades, their all-grades scores are not a like-for-like comparison of students in the same grades.
Recent results show ELA moving in the wrong direction at both schools: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, it fell 6 points at Middle and 6 at Intermediate, while the state result rose 3 points. Math was mixed: Middle gained 3 points, Intermediate fell 4, and the state rose 1. SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 rankings place Intermediate at the 17th percentile (rank 1,434 of 1,737) and Middle at the 12th (990 of 1,126); both received one star.
