Summary

Charles Hay World School is a K–6 elementary school in Englewood, a suburb just south of Denver, serving 271 students in the Englewood School District No. 1. In the 2025–26 school year, it ranked 425th of 943 Colorado elementary schools (55th percentile, 3 stars) — the highest-rated elementary in its district — ahead of Wm E Bishop Elementary School (43rd percentile), Clayton Elementary School (42nd percentile), and Cherrelyn Elementary School (21st percentile).

Academically, Charles Hay posts 50% ELA proficiency vs. 44.7% statewide and 31% district-wide, plus 37% math proficiency vs. 37.3% statewide and 26.7% district-wide. District peers trail far behind: Bishop (14.4% ELA, 20.9% math), Cherrelyn (28.9% ELA, 21.8% math), and Clayton (37.2% ELA, 31.5% math). The school is especially effective with economically disadvantaged students — its low-SES subgroup ranks 71st of 319 Colorado elementary schools (78th percentile, 4 stars), up from the 45th percentile in 2023–24. Chronic absenteeism is 27.7%, still high in absolute terms but well below the district's 40.4% rate and far better than Bishop (46.1%), Cherrelyn (37.1%), and Clayton (35.2%). The student-teacher ratio of 11.9 is among the most favorable in the surrounding area.

Charles Hay has climbed from the 21st percentile in 2021–22 to the 55th percentile today — a notable achievement given that free/reduced lunch eligibility rose from 46.5% to 52.8% over the same period. The main opportunities for growth are upper-elementary performance and science: 5th-grade math proficiency sits at just 24.3% (vs. 39.3% statewide) and 5th-grade science at 29.7% (vs. 36.1% statewide). Nearby schools like Slavens K-8 School, Cherry Hills Village Elementary School, and Cory Elementary School show how much lower chronic absenteeism — in the single digits or low teens — can support strong outcomes. Reducing Charles Hay's 27.7% chronic absenteeism rate could be one of the most impactful next steps.

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
