Summary

Mickey Cox Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 639 students in the highly-regarded Clovis Unified School District, consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 20% of California elementary schools.

The school stands out for its strong academic support, particularly in science where student proficiency significantly outpaces both the district and state averages. It achieves these solid results while serving a student population with greater economic needs than many neighboring schools and does so with notably lower per-student spending, indicating efficient use of resources. For instance, while Red Bank Elementary outperforms in all subjects, it serves a more affluent community; Mickey Cox delivers competitive outcomes similar to schools like Century Elementary and Cedarwood Elementary while supporting more students from low-income families.

Areas for attention include variability in performance between grade levels, such as a notably lower 4th-grade English score contrasted with an exceptionally high 5th-grade score, suggesting a focus on curriculum consistency. The school also manages student chronic absenteeism better than other schools with similar poverty rates, such as Sierra Vista Elementary and Weldon Elementary. Overall, Mickey Cox is a school that effectively supports a diverse student body to achieve academic success.
