Indiana has middle school teams in Indianapolis. I've never asked if the other areas of the state have them. I assume they do. We have a Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) for grades 3-8. Many are associated with Catholic schools. They play among themselves while the school teams play each other.
In order to work middle school games you need to have at least taken the license exam. I've never heard of someone not passing the test and then working junior high games but they could do it. CYO doesn't require any licensing, but I believe most of the guys working cadet (7/8) are licensed.

Ohio, I am in the southwest part does have ms Football. Most schools we work are feeder schools for the high schools in the league. Usually have 4 man crews with both class 1 and class 2 (non varsity) officials. They play OHSAA (NFHS) that are modified for the younger players, example no free kicks, teams take position on the 35 yard line. They play 8 minute quarters.

In the part of California I called in (but I think this applies state wide), there was no middle school football. Middle school aged players played in club leagues. There were some younger high school freshmen I knew that were wobblers and opted to play the oldest age of youth football instead of freshman ball.
Truthfully, the youth football I called at those age groups was light years better than any middle school program I've seen here.

PA has state sponsored MS football, with PIAA officials mandatory for the games.
Also there are the club teams, cyo, and pop warner for kids as old as 14. I have heard stories of kids playing MS and club football concurrently.
