Summary

Hydesville Elementary serves 220 students in kindergarten through grade 8 in Hydesville, California. Its 2025–2026 results were above California’s in math and science but just below in English language arts (ELA): 49% versus 38% in math, 51% versus 36% in science, and 47% versus 49% in ELA. The clearest concern is ELA’s steady decline: proficiency fell from 58% in 2022–2023 to 47% in 2025–2026, while the school’s state comparison shifted from 11 points above California to 2 points below.

Compared with nearby K–8 schools reporting scores, Hydesville was above the peer average in all three subjects, but placed fourth of six in ELA and third of six in math and science. Its strongest advantage over the state is science, 15 points above California; math is 10 points above, while ELA is 2 points below. Grade-level results reveal a sharper contrast: fifth-grade ELA was 35% compared with 49% statewide, while seventh-grade math was 63% versus 38%, and eighth-grade science was 65% versus 35%. The school’s reported test results match those of the Hydesville Elementary district, so the district figures do not offer a separate achievement comparison. Grade-level results can be affected by small testing groups.

Math ended 3 points higher than in 2022–2023, and science rose 11 points; chronic absenteeism also improved, falling from 20% in 2021–2022 to 10% in 2025–2026, below California’s 18% rate. SchoolDigger places the school at the 59th statewide percentile with 3 stars, up from the 56th percentile the year before but below its 70th-percentile standing in 2022–2023. Its 24.4 students per teacher in 2024–2025 was the highest reported ratio among nearby schools, and 52% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings show a notable difference: Female Students ranked at the 74th percentile, while White Students ranked at the 27th, compared with 59th overall. These rankings describe how well the school serves each group, not the students themselves.
