Summary

Remington Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Colorado Springs, CO, serving 534 students in El Paso County Colorado School District 49. The school currently ranks 291st out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, placing it in the 69th percentile — the strongest overall ranking among its immediate neighbors, including Springs Ranch Elementary School, Stetson Elementary School, and Evans Elementary School. Remington has shown a generally upward trajectory over the past decade, returning to the high-200s after ranking 374th the previous year.

Math is Remington's clearest strength. Fifty-five percent of students are proficient in math, compared to about 36% for both the district and the state — roughly 18 points higher, and the advantage is consistent across all grade levels. The school has improved steadily, from 41.1% proficiency in 2022–23 to 55.1% today. ELA proficiency is also solid at 54%, slightly above state and district averages, though a 4th-grade dip (46.9%) is worth watching. Attendance is another positive: chronic absenteeism is 22.6%, better than both the district (26.1%) and state (28.4%). Remington is also in the top 15% of Colorado schools for effectiveness with Hispanic students and students from low-income households — an exceptional result for historically underserved populations.

The comparison with Rocky Mountain Classical Academy, just 1.5 miles away, is striking. That school has a far lower poverty rate (20.7% free/reduced lunch vs. 44.4% at Remington), yet Remington outperforms it by wide margins in both math (55.1% vs. 24.0%) and ELA (54.0% vs. 44.7%), while maintaining better attendance. Science is a relative weakness: only 33.3% of 5th graders are proficient, below the district (38.2%) and state (36.1%). There is also a notable gap between female students (70th percentile statewide) and male students (54th percentile), and the Gifted and Talented subgroup ranks in the bottom 17% of schools — a possible sign that advanced learners aren't always challenged as effectively. Still, with a moderate poverty rate, strong attendance, and a math program that keeps improving, Remington stands out as an academically strong, equity-focused elementary school in the Colorado Springs area.

Teachers and Staff go out of their way to ensure children get what they need. Teachers stay after school and tutor at no cost. They are very active in identifying children who have needs and developing programs to help them succeed. Close Quote
