Summary

Eisenhower Elementary School is a public PK–5 school in Boulder, CO, serving 308 students as part of the Boulder Valley School District No. Re2. The school has earned a reputation as one of Colorado's top elementary schools, ranking 10th out of 943 elementary schools statewide and landing in the 99th percentile — a remarkable rise from 74th place just a few years ago. With state test scores dramatically outpacing district and state averages, Eisenhower stands out as an elite academic option for Boulder families.

The numbers tell an impressive story. Eisenhower's reading proficiency sits at 88.1%, compared to 65.3% for the district and 44.7% statewide. Math proficiency is 84.1% versus 56.1% district and 37.3% state, and 5th-grade science proficiency is 86.9% — the highest among its closest peer schools and roughly 50 percentage points above the state average. In fact, Eisenhower leads nearby Bear Creek Elementary School and High Peaks Elementary School in science and ties High Peaks in reading, while trailing both slightly in math. Strong results extend across the student body, with both female and male students ranking in the 99th percentile statewide. The school also achieves this while serving a more economically diverse population than its closest competitors, with 22.4% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch compared to under 10% at Bear Creek and High Peaks.

A few areas are worth a closer look. Eisenhower shows a noticeable 4th-grade dip in both reading and math — proficiency drops roughly 16 points in reading from 3rd to 4th grade before rebounding strongly in 5th grade. The school's Gifted and Talented subgroup ranks at just the 50th percentile statewide, a contrast to its overall elite performance. Chronic absenteeism sits at 16.7%, better than the state average of 28.4% but higher than close peers like Bear Creek (9.5%) and High Peaks (8.5%). Still, the trajectory is positive: scores have risen steadily even as the student body has become more economically diverse, and the student-teacher ratio has improved to 15.2, giving teachers more capacity for individualized attention.
