Summary

Evans Elementary School is a public elementary school in Colorado Springs, Colorado, serving 508 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the El Paso County Colorado School District 49, which is ranked 46 out of 115 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Evans Elementary has a student population with a high percentage of low-income families, with 66.14% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's performance lags behind nearby schools like Springs Ranch Elementary and Remington Elementary. Evans Elementary has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.8% to 37.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the nearby schools. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels.

Evans Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 495 out of 710 Colorado elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 426 out of 950 in 2024-2025. This suggests the school is struggling to keep up with the performance of other schools in the state. While the high rates of chronic absenteeism and the large proportion of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be contributing factors, addressing these underlying issues could be crucial in improving the school's overall outcomes.
