Hartman Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-5
Summary

Hartman Elementary School is a public elementary school in Omaha, Nebraska, serving 449 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Omaha Public Schools district, which is ranked 177 out of 182 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hartman Elementary has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Nebraska, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics significantly below the district and state averages. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.6% to 40.5% over the past few years. Hartman's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as female, male, English Language Learners, and low-socioeconomic status students, who perform in the bottom 10-30% of Nebraska elementary schools.

Interestingly, nearby Wakonda Elementary, Fontenelle Elementary, Boyd Elementary, and Adams Elementary schools generally outperform Hartman in academic measures, suggesting that Hartman may be facing unique challenges. Despite spending more per student than the state average, Hartman has not been able to translate this additional funding into improved academic outcomes, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation.
