Summary

Hirayama Elementary is a K–6 school in Fresno, part of Clovis Unified, with 442 students—the smallest enrollment among the 11 nearby schools compared. Its clearest academic takeaway is that proficiency is above California’s rate in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but below the district average in all three.

Compared with nearby schools, Hirayama is above the group average in all three subjects: 58% in ELA, 51% in math and 42% in science, versus nearby averages of 53%, 44% and 35%. It ranks fifth of 11 nearby schools in ELA and fourth in math and science. Statewide, its rates are 58% in ELA, 51% in math and 42% in science, compared with 49%, 38% and 36%; district rates are higher at 69%, 55% and 52%. Fourth grade is a standout: its ELA and math rates were the highest among the nearby schools in that grade. Results are less strong relative to the district in fifth-grade ELA and sixth-grade math, though both were above state rates.

Science improved most recently, rising 12 percentage points from 30% in 2024–2025 to 42% in 2025–2026; ELA fell 3 points, while math was nearly unchanged, moving from 51.1% to 51.4%. Chronic absenteeism also dropped 10 points, from 16% to 6%, among the lowest nearby rates. SchoolDigger gives Hirayama a 74th-percentile statewide standing and four stars overall. Its student-teacher ratio was 23.2 in 2024–2025, higher than at seven nearby schools; 59% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, below the nearby average of 67%. One subgroup ranking stands out: SchoolDigger places the school at the 20th percentile for effectiveness in serving Asian students, compared with its overall 74th percentile. The available score history covers only two years.
