Summary

Hansen Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 416 students in Anaheim's Savanna Elementary School District, where it stands out for its strong academic support for students learning English and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

While the school holds a solid 3-star rating, its true strength is in helping specific groups of students thrive. Hansen is exceptionally effective for English Language Learners, ranking in the state's top 4%, and consistently supports students from low-income families better than most similar schools. Academically, students show impressive growth; for example, math proficiency improves significantly from 3rd to 6th grade, and the school beats state averages in all core subjects. Compared to other schools in the Savanna Elementary district, like Holder Elementary and Cerritos Elementary, Hansen is a leader in specialized support, even outperforming a school like Centralia Elementary which has a very similar student population.

The school spends more per student than many neighbors, but the analysis shows that how resources are used matters more than the amount. For instance, Frank Vessels Elementary spends less but scores higher, while Lord Baden-Powell spends far more for lower results. A key area for continued focus is chronic absenteeism, which, while improved, remains higher than the district average. Overall, Hansen Elementary demonstrates that targeted, effective teaching can lead to strong academic growth, particularly for students who often face greater challenges in school.
