Summary

Timnath Elementary School, a PK–5 school in Timnath, CO, serves 455 students within Poudre School District R-1, a district ranked in the 90th percentile statewide. The school earns 4 stars and ranks at the 70th percentile of Colorado elementary schools, making it solidly above average. However, it's surrounded by some of the state's top performers: Zach Elementary (99th percentile), Traut Core Elementary (97th), Bethke Elementary (95th), and Kruse Elementary (88th) all outrank it, as do Riffenburgh Elementary, Bacon Elementary, and Shepardson Elementary. Among nearby schools, only Mountain Sage Community School, Linton Elementary, and Academy of Arts and Knowledge rank lower.

Academically, Timnath's biggest challenge is math. In 2025-26, math proficiency was 47.5%, down nearly 7 points from the prior year and below the district average of 52.2%, with every grade level behind its district peers. English language arts is a relative strength at 58.8% — close to the district average and well above the state's 44.7% — though top neighbors like Zach (87%) and Traut (79.6%) are far ahead. The school also saw 5th-grade science proficiency drop sharply from 57.1% to 44.0%, putting it below the district average.

There is encouraging news. Chronic absenteeism fell from 28.6% to 22.2% in a year, and Hispanic student outcomes improved dramatically, rising from the 16th to the 62nd percentile statewide. Still, equity gaps remain: female students fare better than male students (69th vs. 54th percentile), and low-income students rank at the 50th percentile, below the school's overall standing. Timnath is a dependable school with clear room for growth — one that could likely learn from the high-performing schools just minutes away.
