It is really sad to see our beloved Tom Hawkins school fall apart. What was once a great school that parents could look up to with confidence has turned to a below average school, which leaves parents feeling very sad. Hawkins is now ranked amongst the lowest schools in Tracy now. Six years ago it was a 7 or 8 and then it dropped steadily and now is ranked 5 according to greatschools.org. And if you go to the California Board of education website, you can see the scores have dropped so below state standard. But this is no surprise as some of us parents feel the school was headed in a downward spiral for the last five years due to the current principal and her incompetence and unethical behavior. The bottom line: the school should be heading in a positive direction, not down.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
