School Overview

McFarland is a small agricultural town in the southern San Joaquin Valley, and McFarland Junior High reflects the tight-knit, working-class community it serves — a place where many families have deep roots in the farming industry that defines the region. Academically, the school faces real challenges, with scores in English and Science sitting in the lower range statewide, though Math shows somewhat stronger footing. Families who are engaged and looking to supplement their child's education with additional support at home or through outside resources will likely get the most out of what this school has to offer.
