Hughey Elementary's strong academic performance is evident across various metrics. The school's 5th-grade students have outperformed the district and state in STAAR reading and mathematics assessments, and its 4th-grade students have excelled in Spanish reading, scoring significantly higher than the district and state averages. Hughey Elementary also ranks well for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, outperforming many nearby schools like Ramona Elementary, Cielo Vista Elementary, Cooley Elementary, and Hillside Elementary.
