Summary

Edison Elementary School is a public elementary school in Colorado Springs, Colorado, serving 242 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. It is part of the Colorado Springs School District No. 11, which is ranked 77 out of 115 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Edison Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, significantly lower test scores compared to the district and state averages, and a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. When compared to nearby schools like Steele Elementary and Stratton Elementary, both of which outperform Edison on academic measures, it's clear that location and school-specific factors play a significant role in a school's performance.

Additionally, Edison Elementary's performance has declined over the past several years, dropping from a 3-star rating in 2018-2019 to a 1-star rating in the most recent years. This trend suggests the school may be facing difficulties in improving or even maintaining its academic outcomes. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student attendance, academic support, and equity within the school.

I love my daughter's teachers, and the enrichment they provide. She always comes home excited about what she learned, and wakes up ready to go back again! Close Quote

My kids have been attending this school for 3 years now and while there are a handful of teachers that are great, it is the exception not the rule.
There is a general lack of caring when students get bullied.
My kids have not gotten a lunch break more times than I can count.
They pair grades together now (1st and 2nd, 3rd and 4th etc) due to budget cuts which has not created an improvement.
I'm not very happy with this school. Close Quote
