Summary:

Copper Hills Elementary is a public elementary school in Fresno, California, serving 624 students in grades K-6. It is part of the Clovis Unified School District, which is ranked 326 out of 1,568 districts in the state.

Copper Hills Elementary is a high-performing school, consistently outperforming the Clovis Unified School District and the state of California in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science. The school's proficiency rates in these subjects are significantly higher than the district and state averages. Copper Hills particularly excels for Hispanic, White, and low-income students, ranking in the top 5-10% of California elementary schools in these student groups. However, the school's performance for Asian students is relatively lower, ranking in the middle 50% of the state.

While Copper Hills Elementary's academic achievements are impressive, the school has faced challenges with chronic absenteeism, which increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic before improving in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's higher percentage of low-income students compared to some nearby top-performing schools, such as Liberty Elementary, James S. Fugman Elementary, and Garfield Elementary, may require additional resources and support to ensure continued academic success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
