Summary

Hickman Elementary is a public charter elementary school located in Hickman, California, serving 322 students in grades K-5. As part of the Hickman Community Charter District, Hickman Elementary consistently outperforms its district and the state of California in academic achievement.

Hickman Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics are 55.7% and 55.03%, respectively, compared to the district's 51.84% and 37.34%, and the state's 48.81% and 37.3%. The school's performance is particularly strong among its Hispanic and Low Socioeconomic Status student subgroups, ranking in the top 25% of California elementary schools for these groups. Additionally, the school's performance for English Language Learners is noteworthy, ranking in the top 7% of California elementary schools in 2018-2019. Compared to nearby schools, such as Denair Elementary Charter Academy and Fox Road Elementary, Hickman Elementary demonstrates stronger academic performance across multiple subject areas.

While Hickman Elementary has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school's fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates and relatively high student-teacher ratio of 22.1 to 24.7 may be areas for the school to address to further enhance its educational outcomes. Overall, Hickman Elementary is a well-performing school that serves as a model for academic excellence, particularly in its support of traditionally underserved student populations.
