Summary

Hygiene Elementary School is a highly regarded PK–5 school in Longmont, CO, serving 313 students in the St. Vrain Valley School District. For the 2025–26 school year, Hygiene ranks #39 out of 943 Colorado elementary schools, placing it in the 96th percentile with a 5-star rating — the highest-ranked elementary school in its immediate Longmont-area cluster.

Academically, Hygiene far exceeds district and state averages. In 2025–26, 76.3% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (vs. 51% district and 44.7% state), 71.8% in math (vs. 46.9% district and 37.3% state), and 66.7% in science (vs. 43.6% district and 36.1% state). Proficiency also climbs steadily through the grades — 3rd graders start at 65.2% ELA proficiency and 5th graders reach 87.5%. Among nearby schools, Blue Mountain Elementary is the closest peer, also earning 5 stars, though Hygiene outranks it overall. Blue Mountain is notably stronger in science (84.4% vs. 66.7%), while Hygiene leads in ELA.

Hygiene's success extends beyond test scores. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 12.6% is less than half the state average (28.4%) and lower than most nearby schools. The school also achieves strong results across student subgroups, with female, male, and White students all ranking in the 91st–95th percentiles statewide. Interestingly, Hygiene maintains these outcomes despite a higher student–teacher ratio (16.7) than many lower-performing neighboring schools, and it has continued to excel even as its free/reduced lunch population has grown from 22.5% to 30.4% over three years. With a decade of top-tier rankings and consistent year-over-year results, Hygiene Elementary stands out as one of Colorado's best elementary schools and a clear academic leader in the Longmont area.
