Summary

Hollow Hills Elementary is a highly-regarded K-6 public school serving about 560 students in the Simi Valley Unified School District, consistently ranking among the top schools in the state for its strong and balanced academic performance.

The school excels in creating an environment where all students thrive, achieving high test scores in English, math, and science that are well above both district and state averages. A standout feature is the school's remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate, which is less than half the average of other schools in the area, such as Justin Elementary and Park View Elementary. This strong attendance is closely linked to high achievement and is a key part of the school's success. Hollow Hills achieves these excellent results efficiently, operating with a slightly higher student-to-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending than many neighboring schools, demonstrating effective use of its resources.

The school's consistent performance over the past decade shows it is a reliable choice for families.
