Summary

Alsup Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Commerce City, Colorado, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 449 students. The school is part of the School District N. 14, which is ranked 115 out of 115 districts in Colorado and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. Alsup Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Colorado elementary schools over the past several years, with a current ranking of 899 out of 950 schools.

Alsup Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the state and its own district averages on CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 18.7% of Alsup students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 44.8% statewide and 12.9% in the district. In Math, the proficiency rate was just 10.1%, compared to 35.9% statewide and 8.6% in the district. Alsup Elementary also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 48.9% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While Alsup Elementary and the other schools in the same district (Dupont, Kemp, and Rose Hill) all perform poorly, there are some notable differences. For example, Kemp Elementary has a higher percentage of students proficient in English Language Arts and Math compared to Alsup, suggesting that there may be opportunities to learn from the practices and strategies used at Kemp. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism at Alsup Elementary could be a crucial step in improving the school's overall performance.
