Hickman Charter

Summary:

Hickman Charter is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Hickman, California, with 543 students. While the school is part of the Hickman Community Charter District, which is ranked 560 out of 1,568 districts in the state, Hickman Charter's academic performance is generally lower than the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas.

Hickman Charter's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science are all below the Hickman Community Charter District and the state of California. The school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and White students, who rank in the bottom 25% of California elementary schools. However, the school has maintained very low chronic absenteeism rates, which is a positive indicator.

Compared to nearby schools, Hickman Elementary, a public charter school within the same district, generally outperforms Hickman Charter in academic assessments. Gratton Charter, a public charter school in the Gratton Elementary District, also outperforms Hickman Charter in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics. These performance differences highlight the importance of understanding the unique factors and practices that contribute to the academic success of higher-performing schools, which could provide valuable insights for Hickman Charter to improve its own performance.

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.

Open Quote Home school program is the best we have used. On campus classes let them learn to engage in group learning while still having a individualized learning plan. Works great for my kids that Excell in math and science but need a hand up with English and literature. The staff is incredible, I cannot say enough. Close Quote

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.
