Summary

Devinny Elementary School is a K-5 school in Lakewood, CO, serving 505 students as part of the Jefferson County School District R-1 — a district ranked 24th out of 115 in Colorado. Devinny has earned a 5-star rating in every year of available rankings and currently places 48th out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, putting it in the top 5% statewide.

Academically, Devinny posts CMAS proficiency rates well above district and state averages: 78.5% in English Language Arts and 72.9% in Math, compared to district averages of 53.7% and 44.6%. Its closest academic peer is Kyffin Elementary School, which posts nearly identical overall scores — but the two schools have opposite grade-level strengths. Devinny excels in 3rd and 4th grade (with 4th-grade ELA at 88.9%), while Kyffin is stronger in 5th grade. Devinny also outperforms Rooney Ranch Elementary School in both ELA and Math, despite Rooney Ranch having a lower free/reduced lunch rate and smaller class sizes.

One of Devinny's standout features is attendance: its chronic absenteeism rate of 6.6% is the lowest among all nearby schools and roughly one-quarter the district rate of 26.6%. This strong attendance culture likely reinforces the school's academic success. Notably, Devinny achieves these results with a higher student-teacher ratio (18.0) than most peers. One area worth noting for families of advanced learners: the Gifted and Talented subgroup ranks in the 67th percentile statewide — solid, but less exceptional than the school's overall performance. For most families, Devinny represents a consistently elite option in Jefferson County.
