Best Public Schools in Zip Code 88043

Summary:

The 88043 zip code area has only one school, Hurley Elementary, a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 121 students. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic, making up 92.56% of the student body, with the remaining 7.44% being White students. Hurley Elementary faces significant challenges, including underperformance in academic proficiency, a high poverty level with a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, and a fluctuating statewide ranking that has ranged from 135th out of 420 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 246th out of 435 in 2022-2023.

Hurley Elementary's proficiency rates in core subjects like Language Arts (39%), Mathematics (18%), and Science (22%) are all below the statewide averages, indicating that the school may be struggling to effectively educate its students and prepare them for academic success. The school's high poverty level and 100% free/reduced lunch rate suggest that the community it serves faces significant economic challenges, which may have implications for the school's resources, funding, and ability to provide comprehensive educational support.

Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.6, which is lower than the national average, Hurley Elementary's lack of racial diversity, with a highly homogeneous Hispanic student population, may have implications for the school's cultural awareness, inclusivity, and the educational experiences of its students. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and inconsistent performance over the years further highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to improve the educational outcomes for the students of Cobre Consolidated Schools.
