Summary

Rose Hill Elementary School is a PK–6 elementary school in Commerce City, Colorado, serving 315 students in the School District N. 14, a district that ranks at the very bottom of Colorado's 115 districts. The school serves a high-poverty community, with 88.9% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, though it offers a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.1 to 1 — the lowest among same-district peers like Monaco Elementary School and Alsup Elementary School.

Academically, Rose Hill's proficiency rates on state tests are dramatically below state averages: just 14.0% of students meet English language arts standards and 9.4% meet math standards, compared with state averages of 44.7% and 37.3%, respectively. Math is the deepest concern, with 5th-grade math proficiency at just 7.7%, while 4th-grade math reaches 16.3%. Science is a relative bright spot, with 5th-grade science proficiency of 15.4% actually exceeding the district average of 11.8%. The contrast with nearby Denver schools is stark: Swigert International School and Willow Elementary School, just a few miles away, post ELA proficiency rates above 70% and serve far fewer low-income families.

The most encouraging finding is attendance. Rose Hill's chronic absenteeism rate improved sharply from 41.9% in 2023–2024 to 29.4% in 2024–2025 — essentially matching the state average and beating every same-district elementary, including Kemp Elementary School (32.0%) and Central Elementary School (44.8%). Nearby charter Community Leadership Academy achieves higher test scores with a similar poverty rate, but struggles with 47.5% chronic absenteeism and much larger classes. Rose Hill's smaller classes and improving attendance give it structural advantages that could support further academic recovery.
