Pomolita Middle

Ukiah sits in a quiet valley in Mendocino County, surrounded by vineyards and redwood country — a genuinely beautiful corner of Northern California that tends to attract families who value a slower pace and a strong sense of place. Pomolita Middle serves the heart of this community, and while its academic scores fall in the mid-to-lower range statewide, it can be a good fit for families who are engaged and looking to supplement classroom learning with the outdoor and agricultural richness that the region offers. Families considering this school would do well to connect early with teachers and staff, as involved parents tend to make a real difference in the middle school years here.
