Summary

Academia Ana Marie Sandoval is a PK-6 elementary school in Denver's School District No. 1 serving 409 students, and it currently ranks in the middle of the state pack at the 49th percentile (483rd of 943 Colorado elementary schools) with a 2-star rating. The school has been on a clear upward trajectory: after dipping to a 20th-percentile low in 2022-2023, it has climbed steadily for two consecutive years, though it has not yet regained its 61st-percentile peak from 2016-2017.

Attendance is one of the school's standout strengths. Just 17.9% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, far better than the district's 38.1% and state's 28.4% averages. Academic growth has followed, particularly in math, where CMAS proficiency more than doubled from 15.1% in 2022-2023 to 33.3% in 2025-2026 - narrowing the gap to the state average from -17.8 points to -4.0 points. Reading proficiency also improved from 27.6% to 41.1% over the same period. In 2025-2026, the school beat both district and state averages in 3rd grade math (45.5% proficient) and 4th grade ELA (48.4% proficient). Science has also been a relative bright spot in recent years.

Within a 1.7-mile radius, Academia sits in the middle of an academically diverse neighborhood. Nearby Edison Elementary School ranks at the 97th percentile and Valdez Elementary School at the 85th, while Beach Court Elementary School (11th) and Garden Place Academy (8th) sit at the other end of the spectrum. One area of concern is a notable gender gap: in 2023-2024, female students ranked at the 57th percentile statewide while male students ranked at the 17th. Hispanic students' statewide ranking has also slipped from the 48th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 36th percentile in 2025-2026, even as the school overall improved. Lean staffing (18.2 students per teacher, the highest among nearby schools) and a middle-tier performance record suggest room to grow, but strong attendance and rapid test-score gains point to real momentum.
