Summary

Doull Elementary School is a public elementary school in Denver, Colorado, serving 348 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the School District No. 1, which is ranked 76 out of 115 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Doull Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 37.1% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by CMAS test scores, is also consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 30% of Doull students were proficient or better in CMAS Math, compared to 32.9% for the district and 35.9% for the state. Additionally, Doull has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 87.36% to 90.52% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools.

However, Doull Elementary School's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.9 to 14.6 over the past few years, could be an asset in providing more individualized attention and support to students. When compared to nearby schools within the same district, such as Gust Elementary School and Sabin World School, which had significantly higher CMAS proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math, Doull's performance suggests that targeted interventions to address the high chronic absenteeism and low academic performance could potentially lead to improvements in the school's overall performance.
