Summary

Hickey Elementary is a public elementary school in Plano, Texas, serving 538 students in grades K-5 and part of the Plano Independent School District. The school consistently outperforms the state average on STAAR tests, with 5th-grade reading and math proficiency rates well above the Texas averages. However, Hickey's performance varies across different student subgroups, with White students performing particularly well but Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner students lagging behind.

Hickey Elementary has a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, around 36%, compared to nearby schools like Meadows Elementary (89.56%) and Forman Elementary (85.34%). This suggests the school may benefit from a more diverse student population in terms of socioeconomic backgrounds. Additionally, Hickey's spending per student, around $10,972, is higher than the state average but lower than some nearby schools, such as Memorial Elementary ($14,647) and Isaacs Early Childhood School ($16,780).

Overall, Hickey Elementary is a high-performing school within the Plano Independent School District, with strong academic outcomes. However, the school's performance disparities across different student subgroups and the variations in resource allocation among nearby schools present opportunities for further improvement and a more equitable educational experience for all students.
