Hunt Elementary

Summary:

Hunt Elementary is a public elementary school located in San Bernardino, California, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 543 students. The school is part of the San Bernardino City Unified School District, which is ranked 1221 out of 1568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Hunt Elementary is part of the same school district as nearby schools like Bing Wong Elementary, Belvedere Elementary, and Emmerton Elementary, it consistently underperforms them in key metrics. Hunt Elementary has significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates, with a 49.1% rate in the 2022-2023 school year, compared to the other nearby schools (e.g., Bing Wong at 39.4%, Belvedere at 31.2%, and Emmerton at 40.1%). Additionally, Hunt Elementary's test scores are consistently lower than the San Bernardino City Unified School District and the state of California across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 23.21% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts in the 2023-2024 school year, compared to 33.42% for the district and 47.04% for the state.

The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Hunt Elementary, at 94.84% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicates that the school serves a predominantly low-income population. This socioeconomic factor likely plays a significant role in the school's academic performance and other outcomes. The school also has a higher student-teacher ratio (20.1 in 2022-2023) compared to some of the nearby schools, such as Barton Elementary (18.9) and Wilson Elementary (19.5). Addressing the challenges faced by Hunt Elementary, including high chronic absenteeism and low test scores, will likely require a multifaceted approach, including targeted interventions and a deeper understanding of the unique needs and circumstances of the school and its student population.

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.
