Summary

Brush Creek Elementary School is a PK–5 public elementary school in Eagle, CO, serving 341 students as part of the Eagle County School District RE-50. The school ranks in the 68th percentile statewide (304th out of 943 Colorado elementary schools) with a 3-star rating, and it consistently outperforms its home district by a wide margin. In 2025–26, 57.9% of students scored proficient in English Language Arts and 49.1% in Math—well above the district's 39.9% and 29.2%, respectively—and also above state averages of 44.7% and 37.3%.

Brush Creek is one of only two top-performing elementary schools in the immediate area, alongside Eagle County Charter Academy. Its ELA proficiency is more than 18 points above the district average and far exceeds nearby schools like Avon Elementary School, Edwards Elementary School, and Gypsum Elementary School, which range from 18.5% to 38% proficiency. Chronic absenteeism is also a standout: at 18.2%, it's dramatically lower than the district rate of 31.1% and well below Gypsum's 40.6%. The school serves a comparatively low-poverty population, with only about 15% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, a demographic profile shared only by Eagle County Charter Academy (13.6%).

That said, the school has declined from its historical peak. In 2018–19, Brush Creek ranked in the 95th percentile (5 stars); by 2025–26, it had fallen to the 68th percentile (3 stars). Early-grade strength is another pattern worth noting: 3rd grade Math proficiency was 68.8% in 2025–26—a 33-point advantage over the district—but by 5th grade, Math drops to 39.3%, exactly matching the state average. ELA fades similarly, from 62.5% in 3rd grade to 50% in 5th grade. Female students consistently outperform male students (66th vs. 54th percentile statewide), and 5th grade Science scores are volatile, swinging from 60.3% in 2024–25 to 37.5% in 2025–26. Overall, Brush Creek remains a strong, well-attended school with excellent early-grade instruction, but the upper-grade fade and multi-year downward trend are worth watching.
