Summary

Hardwick Elementary is a public elementary school in Lubbock, Texas, serving 514 students in grades PK-5. As part of the Lubbock Independent School District, Hardwick has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for several years, outperforming the district and state averages in STAAR Reading and Mathematics assessments, particularly in 5th grade.

While Hardwick excels in reading and math, the school struggles with science performance, with only 27.4% of 5th graders proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 29.09% for Lubbock ISD and 29.57% for Texas. The school's subgroup performance is mixed, with strong results for African American and White students, but weaker performance for Hispanic and Special Education students. Despite serving a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, Hardwick's performance suggests the school is effectively supporting its high-needs population.

Compared to nearby schools, Hardwick generally outperforms other Lubbock ISD elementary schools, such as Maedgen, Wester, and Centennial. However, the nearby Harmony Science Academy, a public charter school, outperforms Hardwick in many areas, particularly in mathematics and science. The Frenship ISD schools, such as Westwind, Legacy, and North Ridge, also tend to outperform Hardwick in academic achievement.
