Summary

Hermosa Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 442 students in the well-regarded Alta Loma Elementary district, consistently earning a 4-star rating and performing above California state averages in all core subjects.

When compared to nearby schools, Hermosa holds a solid middle position. It academically outperforms some district peers like Alta Loma Elementary but lags behind others such as Floyd M. Stork Elementary, which is a top performer with exceptionally low chronic absenteeism. A notable challenge for Hermosa is its chronic absenteeism rate, which, while improved from pandemic highs, remains higher than most surrounding schools like Victoria Groves Elementary and Caryn Elementary in the Etiwanda Elementary district.

The school shows interesting variations in performance across different grade levels, with a noticeable dip in fourth-grade scores, and it operates with a student-teacher ratio similar to other schools in its district. Hermosa's per-student spending is moderate compared to neighbors, being lower than Carnelian Elementary but higher than Floyd M. Stork. Overall, Hermosa is a good school with specific areas, like addressing absenteeism, that could help it become exceptional in its competitive local landscape.
