Summary

Cook (Hazel Goes) Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 346 students in the Chula Vista Elementary district, consistently earning a 3-star rating while serving a community with significant economic need.

The school demonstrates particular strengths in supporting specific student groups, with its Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and Special Education students all achieving 4- or 5-star ratings, performing well above state averages. Academically, there is a notable pattern: while English Language Arts skills grow impressively by 6th grade, math proficiency in the lower grades is a clear challenge, and science scores lag behind the district average. Chronic absenteeism, though improved since the pandemic, remains higher than the district average, which is an area of focus.

Interesting comparisons with nearby schools show that while Palomar Elementary achieves stronger academic results with a similar student population, and Clear View outperforms in all subjects with lower poverty rates, Cook Elementary's targeted support systems for vulnerable groups are a standout strength. The school's per-student spending is higher than some peers, and its statewide ranking has dipped from earlier years, suggesting opportunities to learn from higher-performing schools in the area to address its challenges in early math and attendance.
