School Overview

University Heights Middle serves seventh and eighth graders in Riverside's inland SoCal landscape, where the foothills meet a mix of established neighborhoods and ongoing growth. The school draws families in the area who appreciate a dedicated middle school transition experience, though academic scores suggest there's room to grow — particularly in science. It could be a good fit for families who want to stay involved and help build momentum during those pivotal pre-high school years.
