Walsh Middle is the clear local standout.

Fuller Middle has the best resources — a student-teacher ratio of 8.5 and per-student spending of $22,450 — yet ranks 377 out of 478 with 1 star and posts weak math (17.19% all grades, 14.81% in 8th grade). It did show the strongest gains in science (+6.14 points) and civics (+7.95 points). Cameron Middle School ranks lowest at 400 out of 478 (16th percentile, 1 star), sits below the district in every 2025–26 measure, and has the highest student-teacher ratio (11.0), though 8th-grade math at 24.14% is a bright spot.
