Summary

Wray Elementary School is a public elementary school in Wray, Colorado, serving 408 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Wray Rd-2 School District, which is ranked 37 out of 115 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Wray Elementary School has consistently performed above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Science assessments, with 50.2% of students proficient in ELA and 53.6% proficient in 5th-grade Science, compared to state averages of 44.8% and 39%, respectively. However, the school's Math proficiency rates have been more mixed, with some grades performing above the state average while others, such as 6th grade, have lagged behind. The school has shown strong performance among its Hispanic and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) student subgroups, with Hispanic students ranking 82nd out of 197 Colorado elementary schools and Low SES students ranking in the top quartile.

One area of concern for Wray Elementary School is its fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates, which have ranged from 21.1% to 36.9% and have been higher than the state average. The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 51.94% to 63.73%, suggests that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.4 to 16.6 students per teacher, may be a positive factor in supporting these students, but further analysis is needed to understand how resources are allocated and utilized to address the needs of the school community.
