Elementary Schools in Weld County School District No. Re-7

Summary:

The Weld County School District No. Re-7 in Colorado is home to two elementary schools: Platte Valley Elementary School and Platte Valley Early Learning Center. These schools serve students from the surrounding area and provide a range of educational opportunities.

Among the two schools, Platte Valley Elementary School stands out as the higher-performing institution. It has consistently ranked higher in the statewide school rankings, with a ranking of 298 out of 950 Colorado elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students outperform the district and state averages in most CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) test subjects and grade levels, particularly in English Language Arts and Science.

While Platte Valley Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 53.61% in the 2023-2024 school year, it maintains a lower student-teacher ratio of 15.5 compared to the 25.7 ratio at Platte Valley Early Learning Center. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 27.7% in the 2023-2024 school year is higher than the state average, which is an area of concern that the district may want to address.
