HANFORD ELEMENTARY COMMUNITY DAY

Hanford Elementary Community Day is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Hanford Elementary school district, located in Hanford, CA with about 16 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 3 teachers, Hanford Elementary Community Day has a student/teacher ratio of about 5:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Hanford Elementary Community Day School, located at 601 W. Florinda St. in Hanford, California, is a specialized educational facility operated by the Hanford Elementary School District. Unlike a traditional neighborhood school, Community Day schools are designed to provide a highly structured, alternative learning environment for students who require additional support, intervention, or a different setting to succeed academically and behaviorally. The program focuses on maintaining educational continuity for students who have been referred from other district schools, often emphasizing smaller class sizes and more personalized attention to help students get back on track.

The school operates under the mission of the Hanford Elementary School District, which prioritizes student safety, academic growth, and character development. By providing a distinct setting away from the comprehensive school environment, Community Day aims to address the specific needs of its students through a curriculum that aligns with district standards while incorporating intensive guidance and support services. Families and students interested in specific enrollment requirements or current program offerings can find additional information via the official district website at http://www.hesd.k12.ca.us/.
