Summary

Heiman Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Evans, Colorado, serving 584 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Greeley School District No. 6, which is ranked 100 out of 115 school districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Heiman Elementary School faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below-average academic performance on state assessments, and a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. The school's proficiency rates on the CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) assessments in 2024-2025 were just 19.4% in English Language Arts, 22.9% in Math, and 18.3% in Science, compared to the state averages of 44.8%, 35.9%, and 39%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, which may impact the level of individual attention and support students receive.

When compared to other nearby schools in the Greeley School District, such as Chappelow K-8 Magnet School, Heiman Elementary School is one of the lower-performing schools in the district. The school's performance has remained relatively stagnant over the past several years, with little to no improvement in academic proficiency rates or school rankings. Addressing the high rates of chronic absenteeism, the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population, and the student-teacher ratio may be crucial in improving the academic outcomes at Heiman Elementary School.
