Summary

Green Valley Elementary School is a public elementary school in Denver, Colorado, serving 719 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.

Green Valley Elementary School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates (ranging from 27.7% to 43.1%) and consistently underperforming on state assessments compared to the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 25.4% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and only 21.1% were proficient or better in Math, compared to 41.9% and 32.9% for the district, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as female students and Hispanic students.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Lena Archuleta Elementary School, KIPP Northeast Elementary, and Highline Academy Northeast generally perform better than Green Valley Elementary School on state assessments and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that the challenges faced by Green Valley Elementary School may be unique to the school or the immediate community it serves. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive approach that addresses both the school's internal factors and the broader socioeconomic context of the community.
