Summary

Spring Hill Elementary is an elementary school located in Anchorage, Alaska, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 367 students. It is part of the Anchorage School District, which is ranked 14 out of 24 districts in Alaska and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its small class sizes and higher-than-average per-student spending, Spring Hill Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Alaska elementary schools, with significantly lower academic performance than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 12.95% of students were proficient or better in STAR/English Language Arts, compared to 35.6% for the Anchorage School District and 32.69% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in mathematics, with only 19.42% of students proficient or better in STAR/Mathematics, compared to 35.34% for the district and 32.18% for the state.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Rabbit Creek Elementary, Huffman Elementary, and Bowman Elementary, consistently outperform Spring Hill Elementary in academic metrics, despite having higher student-teacher ratios. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and staffing may contribute to the stronger academic performance of these nearby schools. Additionally, Spring Hill Elementary has a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, which may be a contributing factor to its persistent underperformance.
