Summary

Green Acres Elementary School serves 320 students in grades 1–5 in Fort Morgan, Colorado, as part of School District No. Re-3 Fort Morgan, a district ranked in the bottom 5% statewide — yet Green Acres has moved from last to second among the district's four same-district elementary schools, now trailing only Columbine Elementary School.

Academically, Green Acres posts proficiency rates well below state averages — 25.1% in ELA and 19.6% in math versus 44.7% and 37.3% statewide — but it is competitive within its own district, with math and science actually above district averages. The school's strongest results come in 5th grade: 5th-grade ELA proficiency hit 38.7%, far ahead of same-district peers Baker Elementary School (27.0%) and Pioneer Elementary School (15.0%), and 5th-grade science has outpaced the district average for two straight years. However, math proficiency steadily declines from 24.6% in 3rd grade to 16.1% in 5th grade, and 4th-grade ELA is the lowest among the district's four elementary schools. Notably, Beaver Valley Elementary School in Brush — a school with higher poverty and larger classes — posted 28.8% math proficiency versus Green Acres' 19.6%, suggesting the math challenges aren't simply a matter of demographics.

Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism improved to 22.0%, better than both the district (27.6%) and state (28.4%) averages, and the share of students qualifying for free/reduced-price lunch dropped from 69.6% to 58.8% over two years. The most serious concern is an equity gap: the school's statewide effectiveness ranking for low-income students fell from the 30th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 6th percentile in 2025-2026, even as the school's overall ranking improved. With nearly 60% of students qualifying for free lunch, this is not a peripheral issue — it suggests recent gains may be concentrated among more advantaged students, and closing that gap while maintaining the school's positive momentum in science, 5th-grade ELA, and attendance remains the central challenge ahead.
