Scott Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Colorado elementary schools over the past 10 years, with rankings ranging from 730 to 884 out of around 900-950 schools. The school has maintained a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years, indicating it is among the lowest-performing schools in the state. Proficiency rates in CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) tests for English Language Arts, Math, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 16.5% in ELA, 15.4% in Math, and 17.1% in Science, compared to the district averages of 28.9%, 19.8%, and 20.6%, respectively. Additionally, Scott Elementary School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 34.4% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Comparing Scott Elementary School to nearby schools, such as Union Colony Elementary, Martinez Elementary, and Monfort Elementary, highlights the unique challenges faced by Scott Elementary. These nearby schools also perform below the state averages in academic proficiency, but generally outperform Scott Elementary School. The high chronic absenteeism rate at Scott Elementary School is a significant concern, as it is much higher than the nearby schools. Additionally, the extremely high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Scott Elementary School, significantly higher than the nearby schools, likely contributes to the school's academic challenges and low performance.
