Beaumont Middle College High scores 56 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 78th percentile of 2,160 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

Measures test performance, attendance, and climate — not arts, community, or your kid. How we score →

🌱 Building Momentum — This label means the data doesn't clearly sort the school one way or the other — ask what the school is proud of, and what it's working on.

Most rating sites would stop at “61% proficient” and call it done. Beaumont Middle College deserves a closer read. The school sits in Banning, where more than half of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

Worth a school visit

Ask how the school challenges kids who clear the standard early. The gap between meeting and exceeding is where pacing shows.

  • Ask what share of students complete the full college-prep course sequence, and who gets steered into it.
  • Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
  • Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
  • Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
  • Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.

UC is one road of many — this says nothing about graduates who chose a CSU, a private, or an out-of-state campus. And who applied isn't who the school taught: the ratio between the two reflects the self-selected pool of students who chose to apply, not what happened in the classroom.

On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 60.9% of students at Beaumont Middle College High met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 34.8% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 26.1% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 34.8% pushed past it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number.

This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.

What is the attendance and school culture like at Beaumont Middle College High?
