Summary

Inspiration View Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 516 students in grades PK-5 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It is part of the El Paso County Colorado School District 49, which is ranked 46 out of 115 districts in the state.

Inspiration View Elementary outperforms the district and state averages in several key academic areas, including English Language Arts and Math proficiency. However, the school lags behind in science proficiency. Inspiration View has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be impacting overall student achievement. The school's population is also becoming more economically disadvantaged over time, with an increasing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools in the same district, Rocky Mountain Classical Academy and Stetson Elementary School perform similarly to or slightly better than Inspiration View in many academic areas, while Falcon Elementary School of Technology and Odyssey Elementary School lag behind. The higher-performing Springs Ranch Elementary and Ridgeview Elementary schools provide valuable context for understanding Inspiration View's relative strengths and areas for improvement.

Great school with a great staff. The school is fairly new and has a good population of military kids so those test scores are probably not a great indication of just how good this school and the staff actually is. The kids and the parents who have kids here have no complaints as you can see by the lack of comments. That's why I wanted to be the one to give credit where it is due. I and my kid especially appreciate the educators at this school. Mrs. Gardner in particular! Close Quote

I have tried to edit my last review but I just wanted to say that things have been improving. I wish there was a way to edit or delete a review. We had waited a long time to talk to anyone from the school and I was feeling ignored. There have been a lot of issues, that is the truth, but right now they are trying to make things right and I am stepping back to see if they can uphold their word. Close Quote
