Summary

Halkin Elementary is a public elementary school located in San Leandro, California, serving 719 students in grades K-5. It is part of the San Leandro Unified School District, which is ranked 1049 out of 1565 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Halkin Elementary faces significant challenges, including a steady increase in chronic absenteeism rates, which are significantly higher than the district and state averages. The school also consistently underperforms the San Leandro Unified School District and the state of California in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, as well as the CAST Science assessments. For example, in 2024-2025, only 32.05% of Halkin students were proficient or better in ELA/Literacy, compared to 40.05% for the district and 48.81% for the state. The school also struggles with the performance of several student subgroups, with its Asian and Hispanic student populations ranking in the bottom 20% and bottom 10%, respectively, among California elementary schools.

When comparing Halkin Elementary to other nearby schools in the San Leandro Unified School District, it becomes clear that Halkin is one of the lower-performing schools. For example, Madison Elementary, which is also in the district, consistently outperforms Halkin in test scores and has a much higher statewide ranking. Additionally, Halkin Elementary has seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $12,936 in 2020-2021 to $19,071 in 2023-2024, but this increased funding does not appear to have translated into improved academic outcomes for the school.
