Summary:
Hydesville Elementary is a single K-8 school serving 220 students in the rural Hydesville Elementary district, achieving academic results above California state averages despite over half of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Hydesville Elementary shows notable strengths, particularly in its low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.3%, which is well below the state average, and in outperforming state proficiency averages in English, Math, and Science for the 2024-2025 school year. The school's mathematics performance improves notably in the upper grades, with 8th graders achieving 60% proficiency, and the school also excels in 8th-grade science. However, performance varies significantly between grade levels, with 6th-grade English being exceptionally strong while 4th and 5th-grade English scores fall below the state average.
While the school's academic performance remains steady, its statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, suggesting other schools are improving at a faster rate. Parents should note the school achieves these solid results with a student-teacher ratio slightly higher than the state average, indicating effective use of resources. The significant variation in scores across different grades and subjects points to areas of both excellence and potential focus for continued support.
