of 943 Colorado Elementary Schools

Better than 7% of Colorado elementary schools

Summary

Scott Elementary School is a PK–5 campus in Greeley School District No. 6 that serves 566 students in a high-poverty area of Greeley, CO, where about 79% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Colorado elementary schools, placing at the 7th percentile statewide (880th out of 943 schools) in 2025–2026, with no evidence of sustained improvement over the past four years.

Academically, Scott's proficiency rates are dramatically lower than state averages across all subjects: just 20.4% of students are proficient in ELA and 15.5% in math, compared to state averages of 44.7% and 37.3%. In 5th-grade science, only 8.9% of students are proficient — about one-quarter of the state rate. Math is especially weak in upper grades, with only 12.2% of 4th graders proficient compared to 39% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is a major concern, with 38.6% of students chronically absent — up from 34.4% the year before and among the highest in the area. The student-teacher ratio also jumped sharply from 15.6 to 19.3 in one year, meaning less individualized attention in a high-need setting. Nearby comparison schools like Meeker Elementary achieve notably better results with a similar poverty rate, while S. Christa McAuliffe STEM Academy, just two miles away, posts dramatically higher proficiency rates and far lower absenteeism.

Both male and female students at Scott rank in the bottom few percent statewide, and while Hispanic and low-income subgroups have shown modest improvement, the school remains far from acceptable outcomes. The bright spots are limited: 5th-grade ELA proficiency of 25.6% is the school's strongest grade-level result, and literacy strategies may be gaining some traction. However, the combination of high poverty, rising absenteeism, larger class sizes, and very low math and science achievement makes Scott a school of significant concern. The most urgent priorities should be improving attendance, stabilizing staffing, and building a focused math and science intervention strategy.
