Summary

Eiber Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Lakewood, CO, serving 255 students in the Jefferson County School District No. R-1, but it ranks in the bottom 13th percentile of Colorado elementary schools with a 1-star rating — a position it has held for most of the past decade, never rising above the 30th percentile since 2014-2015.

Academic achievement at Eiber is far below district and state averages. Only 1 in 4 students is proficient in English Language Arts, about 1 in 6 in math, and roughly 1 in 8 in 5th-grade science. The contrast with nearby Dennison Elementary School, just 1.1 miles away and ranked 3rd in the state, is stark: 90.9% ELA proficiency there versus 25% at Eiber. Even compared with nearby schools serving similar poverty levels, Eiber lags — Welchester Elementary School achieves 44.2% ELA proficiency and Slater Elementary School achieves 34.6%, both well above Eiber's 25%.

The most urgent issue is attendance: 56.8% of Eiber students are chronically absent, more than double the state average and the highest rate among nearby schools. The local pattern is clear — schools with absenteeism below 20%, such as Dennison (4.3%) and Prospect Valley Elementary School (15.5%), all rank in the top half of the state, while schools above 40% absenteeism cluster near the bottom. On a positive note, Eiber's student-teacher ratio is a relatively low 13.1:1, and math proficiency has climbed from 8.3% in 2023-2024 to 16.8% in 2025-2026, though it still sits below half the state average.

If you look at stats alone, you might assume this is a bad school. It is not.
There are many families that are at or below poverty level, many families where English is the second or third language. Being so close to Colfax Avenue, many of the children that attend are homeless or in acute need of a better living situation.

BUT, this school has heart, the teachers and administrators really care about the kids and do their best to educate under less than ideal conditions. They have community outreach programs, partnerships with companies and US Government.

The school is safe, and these children's needs are met and exceeded by the staff at the school. Close Quote
