Sixth grade also had a notable ELA decline, with 38.24% proficiency, suggesting that the transition into middle grades deserves attention. Seventh-grade math was a bright spot at 50%, above the state rate. The school’s student–teacher ratio is relatively high at 26.9:1, which may make individualized support more difficult. Its statewide ranking declined from the 57th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 44th percentile in 2025–2026, although recent science gains and above-state ELA results show important strengths. Parents should also consider how the remote-learning format fits their child’s learning needs.
