Summary

Hemmerling Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 468 students in the Banning Unified School District, a high-need area where the school has shown steady academic improvement in recent years.

While test scores are below state averages, Hemmerling consistently outperforms other schools in its own district, including Hoffer Elementary and Central Elementary, in English, math, and science. The school is particularly effective with English Language Learners and shows notable strength in its 3rd-grade classes. However, it faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism, which is higher than at similar nearby schools, and there is a pronounced performance gap between female and male students.

Compared to schools in the neighboring Beaumont Unified district, such as Three Rings Ranch Elementary, Hemmerling operates with fewer resources per student. Despite this, it has climbed from the 5th to the 30th percentile statewide since 2019, demonstrating a strong capacity for improvement within its challenging context, making it a standout school in its local area.
