Summary

Stony Creek Elementary School in Littleton, CO, serves 349 students in grades PK–5 as part of Jefferson County School District R-1, a 4-star district ranked 24th in Colorado. The school holds a 4-star SchoolDigger rating and ranks 237th out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, placing it in the 75th percentile statewide. On the most recent CMAS assessments, 59.9% of students scored proficient in ELA and 51.3% in math — roughly 15 and 14 points above state averages, respectively. Stony Creek has earned 4 stars for five consecutive years, ranking between the 71st and 80th percentiles, a consistency that stands out in a local landscape where nearby schools swing significantly.

Within a two-mile radius, Stony Creek sits in the upper-middle tier of a competitive cluster. Westridge Elementary School and Ute Meadows Elementary School rank higher, while Columbine Hills Elementary School and Montessori Peaks Charter Academy rank lower, sometimes by a wide margin. Notably, Stony Creek serves a higher-need population — 30.4% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch — than most of its higher-ranking neighbors, including Westridge (14.8%), Shaffer Elementary School (13.7%), and Ute Meadows (17.7%). Its low-income subgroup ranked at the 76th percentile statewide, a strong sign the school is effective with economically disadvantaged students.

The school's main challenges are chronic absenteeism and science. At 18.2%, chronic absenteeism is below district and state averages but is the highest among nearby schools — Westridge is at 9.9% and Ute Meadows at 8.8%. Science proficiency fluctuates year to year and sits near the district average, while ELA remains remarkably steady, with proficiency between roughly 59% and 60% over the past four years. Improving attendance could be the most impactful lever for closing the gap to top-tier neighbors. Overall, Stony Creek is a stable, above-average school that does more with more need.

Open Quote The worst elementary school my child has ever attended the principal allows bullying and she actually rewards the bullies! She turns the victims into the problem! Be careful because she (the principal) puts up a nice fake front! The bullies are in charge and she has zero control! Close Quote
