Summary

Wilmot Elementary School is a PK–5 elementary school in Evergreen, Colorado, serving 327 students within Jefferson County School District R-1. In 2025–2026, Wilmot Elementary School earned a statewide rank of 70 out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, placing it in the 93rd percentile with a 5-star rating—a strong result that continues a nearly decade-long upward trajectory from the mid-2010s.

Academically, Wilmot stands out across all subjects, with math as its defining strength. Math proficiency reached 69.2%, far exceeding the district's 44.6% and the state's 37.3%, while ELA proficiency hit 71.9% and 5th-grade science came in at 62%. Fifth graders are especially strong, with 83.7% proficient in ELA and 79.6% in math. Wilmot's math performance is particularly notable among its peers—it outpaces nearby Bergen Elementary School and Red Rocks Elementary School in math even though those schools post comparable or higher ELA scores. A potential area to watch is 4th-grade math proficiency (57.1%), which dips below the school's 3rd- and 5th-grade results, though it remains well above state averages.

Wilmot also maintains a chronic absenteeism rate of 16.0%, better than the district's 26.6% and the state's 28.4%, though it did rise from 11.6% the prior year. The student-teacher ratio of 14.9 is similar to Kendallvue Elementary School and lower than several nearby schools with larger classes. Wilmot is part of a competitive cluster of mountain-area schools, ranking 4th among nearby same-district schools behind Parmalee Elementary School, Ralston Elementary School, and Bergen. With a free/reduced-price lunch rate of 12.2% and balanced high achievement across both male and female students, Wilmot combines a favorable demographic context with effective schoolwide practices to deliver consistently elite results.

Open Quote When I found this school nestled in the mountains I thought the test scores showed excellence in a small natural community, however Wilmot accepts one narrow mind of thinking, as the demographics show and it if your child does not fit that mold, watch out! Wilmot is all about Money, even the folders are Commercials for parents businesses! If your child is innovative, this is not the school. Sadly it is not about education but about social and economic status at Wilmot. If you like to flaunt and talk about money you'll do fine. If you do not carry the Wilmot Country Club social card, watch your child! Your child will be labelled, judged and misperceived as having disabilities. The school does not inform parents on any placements and you need to observe it with your own eyes or have parents inform you what they are doing to your child. Wilmot is the special needs magnet school of the area so your child will assist their funds and they really try to get these full even when a child does not need the support. The majority of teachers are hyper-sensitive or arrogant (not all but most). The majority of the Wilmot teachers do not listen to the concerns of the parents. When parents question anything, they get upset, offended and the principal begins to try and remove the family to protect his teachers, but you can bring your lawyer with you and you'll be fine! There is a serious problem with lack of communication and cooperation. I now see why the test scores are high, the curriculum is teach to the test 100%, there is no open thinking, no facilitated learning, little hands on, little teacher instruction and a lot of worksheets and tests. The only outside the box or creativity is the Specials, which half are great. The leadership team is a secret group who make decisions to inflate their own egos and secure their own power only. If you want a robot child, Wilmot is the school for you. If you want innovative thinking, higher-order learning and a challenging curriculum, look elsewhere! Close Quote
