Summary

Maplewood Elementary School is a K-5 school in Greeley, Colorado, serving 544 students within the Greeley School District No. 6. The school serves a highly economically disadvantaged population, with 87.3% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch—the highest rate among all nearby schools. In 2025-26, Maplewood ranked 913th out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, placing it in the 3rd percentile statewide and making it the lowest-ranked school in its Greeley-area comparison group.

Academically, Maplewood trails both district and state averages in every subject. In 2025-26, just 17.5% of students were proficient in English language arts, compared to the district's 28.1% and the state's 44.7%. Math proficiency was even lower at 9.5%—the lowest among nearby schools, including Shawsheen Elementary at 10.8% and Jackson Elementary at 17.5%. Fifth-grade science proficiency was 8.0%, also the lowest in the area and less than one-quarter of the state average of 36.1%. Even when compared to schools with similar poverty levels, Maplewood lags: James Madison STEAM Academy (85% poverty) posts higher scores in ELA, math, and science, while Martinez Elementary (80.4% poverty) achieves 24.2% ELA proficiency and 22.2% math proficiency—both far above Maplewood's results.

There are some encouraging signs. Between 2023-24 and 2025-26, math proficiency more than doubled from 3.8% to 9.5%, and ELA improved from 12.1% to 17.5%. Still, the pace of improvement leaves the school well behind district and state averages. Chronic absenteeism is a significant barrier, with 36.9% of students missing substantial school in 2024-25, compared to 28.4% statewide. The school also shows a concerning pattern where older students fall further behind—5th-grade ELA proficiency is 13.3%, down from 20.2% in 3rd grade. For context, nearby Fred Tjardes School of Innovation posts the highest ELA proficiency in the cluster (30.2%) with the lowest poverty rate. Families considering Maplewood should know that while the school faces real challenges, recent test scores are moving in a positive direction from a very low base.
