Summary

Hurd Barrington Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 428 students in Newman, CA, within the Newman-Crows Landing Unified School District, and it stands out as a school showing clear, positive momentum in both attendance and academic performance.

While the school's overall test scores remain below state averages, it is on a strong upward trend, improving its statewide ranking more than any other elementary school in its district. A key driver of this success appears to be its exceptional management of chronic absenteeism, which at 13.0% is the lowest among nearby schools like Hunt Elementary (17.7%) and Gustine Elementary (25.9%), and is better than both district and state averages. The school also uses its resources effectively, achieving better academic results than Hunt Elementary despite receiving significantly less funding per student.

Notably, Hurd Barrington outperforms its own district average in mathematics, a relative strength compared to local peers. However, parents should be aware that performance dips in the upper grades, particularly in 5th-grade math and science. Compared to higher-performing schools with similar student populations, such as Bonita Elementary or Chatom Elementary, this indicates an area for continued growth as the school builds on its recent improvements.
