Summary

Beaver Valley Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Brush, Colorado, which is part of the School District No. Re-2 Brush. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Colorado elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years.

Beaver Valley Elementary faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates, consistently low test scores across all subjects and grade levels, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 22% of students were proficient or better in CMAS English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 44.8%. The school also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools. These factors suggest the school may be facing issues related to student and family socioeconomic factors, as well as potential problems with school climate, instructional quality, and resource allocation.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Weldon Valley Elementary School and the schools in the School District No. Re-3 Fort Morgan, Beaver Valley Elementary's performance is consistently lower. This indicates the challenges faced by the school may be specific to the school itself, rather than solely due to district-level factors. Addressing the root causes of these issues will be crucial for improving the school's performance and supporting the success of its students.
