A closer look at Beulah Middle School.
Beulah Middle's published workforce-education offerings include agriscience technology and pre-engineering. The school also provides a dedicated family entry point for athletics, student devices and transfers at its West Nine Mile Road campus.
The 2025–26 Florida DOE report classifies Beulah Middle School in the middle category, as a district public school in Escambia County. Its accountability grade is A; it earned 64% of possible accountability points. The published grade sequence is C in 2023–24, B in 2024–25, and A in 2025–26.
A working farm puts the hands-on learning description into context
Our interpretation of published school information, not a campus inspection or an additional official rating.
Beulah Middle's published workforce page describes a working school farm with livestock and animals, alongside agriscience, pre-engineering, culinary arts and Digital Discoveries. That is a concrete distinction from a program list built only around classroom titles. Our reading is that families should ask how students use those settings to investigate, build, record results and connect practical work with their academic subjects.
The school also identifies FFA, robotics, fine and performing arts, and athletics. The range suggests several directions for exploration, but it does not mean one student can take part in everything at once. Middle school can be a useful time to test an interest without committing to a career; the important planning question is whether a student can sample an area and then continue into a more substantial course or activity.
Why it may fit
Relevant for a student who is curious about animals, food, design or building and wants to connect an interest with schoolwork. Ask how beginners enter the programs, including students without prior experience.
What to weigh
A farm or robotics program is a setting for learning, not evidence of how much hands-on time each student receives. Confirm grade eligibility, course availability, application requirements and the balance with core classes.
This is the West Nine Mile Road middle school. Its campus and enrollment process should not be confused with Beulah Academy of Science, the separate charter school on Beulah Road.
Ask for one recent farm or engineering project, what students were responsible for doing themselves, and how a new student would enter that course sequence during 2026–27.

What makes this school distinctive.
Career exploration
The school's program navigation identifies Agriscience Technology Academy and Pre-Engineering Academy; confirm the current courses and selection process with the school.
School source ↗Academy enrollment is separate
The district describes career academies as voluntary, application-based programs. School assignment alone does not establish acceptance into a particular academy.
School source ↗How the official results compare.
Its 64% overall points result is 1 percentage points above the 63% median among 9 other middle schools in Escambia County with reported data.
What the results suggest.
Look beyond the latest letter
The sequence C → B → A is a reason to ask what changed between the three reporting years. A letter-grade change is not itself a measure of an individual child's learning growth. Ask the school to explain the underlying achievement and learning-gains results before attributing the change to a particular program.
A result worth noticing
Social studies is 87%, compared with a 71% median for 9 other local schools in the same state category. That 16-point difference is the largest positive peer gap among the subject measures available here. Ask which learning opportunities sit behind it and how a new student would access them.
Where to look closer
The mathematics result is 56%, 3 percentage points below its 59% local peer median. This is a specific area to discuss, rather than a verdict on the whole school. Ask how teachers identify a student who needs help, what support looks like during the week, and how progress is shared with families.
Calculated from the dated state results below. Peer gaps compare each subject with the same subject at other schools, not one subject with another. Measures can cover different student groups. They do not establish why a result occurred or the quality of a particular teacher.
| Measure | This school | Peer median | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Overall accountability points | 64% | 63% (9 schools) | +1 pp |
| English language arts achievement | 53% | 55% (9 schools) | −2 pp |
| Mathematics achievement | 56% | 59% (9 schools) | −3 pp |
| Science achievement | 52% | 55% (9 schools) | −3 pp |
| Social studies achievement | 87% | 71% (9 schools) | +16 pp |

Calculated from the linked Florida DOE release. The peer median is the middle school-level result, excludes this school, uses the same county and DOE school category, and ignores missing values. It is not weighted by enrollment. “pp” means percentage points. Graduation and acceleration measures use the cohorts specified by the state. Different measures describe different groups of students.
Use the results to identify questions, not to predict your child's experience. Programs, support, admissions and a campus visit can change which option fits your priorities. Read the state methodology ↗

Beulah Academy Of Science reports 84% in mathematics achievement, compared with 56% here. If this is a priority, ask how its instruction and support would serve your child. Worth exploring for a middle school student who wants to combine science interests with music, agriculture, art or practical coursework. Ask how students sample electives before choosing a longer sequence.

Ransom Middle School reports 69% in mathematics achievement, compared with 56% here. If this is a priority, ask how its instruction and support would serve your child. Worth examining for students curious about technical subjects who would benefit from trying a field before selecting a more focused high-school pathway.

Compare Bellview Middle School's course options, student support and daily schedule with this school. A different program or learning format may matter more to your child than the overall grade. A relevant option to investigate for a student curious about how digital systems work or how technology is used in business. Prior interest can guide the conversation without assuming the student already knows a future career.
District school: confirm zoning, transfers and availability.Campus-to-campus distances are straight-line estimates, not driving routes or distances from your home. Use the address search on the school map for a comparison from your own location. An alternative may be a better fit when its verified program, support or learning format aligns with your child's needs; a higher score in one measure does not settle that decision.
Enrollment and a useful school visit.
Confirm the school assignment or transfer process with Enrollment Services, then ask Beulah Middle about any separate academy application and prerequisites. Enrollment resource ↗
