The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 25.3% to 35.9% over the past three school years, significantly higher than the state's average of around 20%.

Compared to nearby schools, Charles Hay World School's performance is generally lower than schools in the Cherry Creek School District and Denver Public Schools, such as Cherry Hills Village Elementary School and Slavens K-8 School, which have significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and free and reduced lunch eligibility at Charles Hay World School may be contributing factors to the school's lower academic performance, which has struggled to improve over the past several years.

Open Quote We have had the best experience at Charles Hay. The staff is amazing, the brand-new building is beautiful, and my child loves going to school. The IB program is something that was very important when I was researching schools, and I love that they start teaching Spanish in kindergarten. Close Quote
