Summary

Longmont Estates Elementary School is a PK-5 elementary school in Longmont, Colorado, serving 365 students as part of the St. Vrain Valley School District. The school holds a solid 4-star rating and ranks at the 72nd percentile statewide, placing it comfortably above average among Colorado elementary schools. Academically, Longmont Estates outperforms both district and state averages in English Language Arts (56.9% proficient vs. 51.0% district and 44.7% state), Math (53.0% vs. 46.9% and 37.3%), and Science (47.6% vs. 43.6% and 36.1%). This is notable given that about 42% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, a moderate-to-high poverty rate. The school's ranking has been remarkably stable over the past several years, hovering between the 68th and 74th percentiles.

Compared with nearby elementary schools, Longmont Estates occupies a distinct middle tier. It trails top-performing schools like Blue Mountain Elementary, Hygiene Elementary School, and Central Elementary School, which rank in the 87th–96th percentile with proficiency rates above 65%, but it clearly outperforms many neighbors including Eagle Crest Elementary School, Columbine Elementary School, Timberline Pk-8, and Northridge Elementary School. One of the school's biggest strengths is attendance: its chronic absenteeism rate of 14.2% is roughly half the state average of 28.4% and far better than several nearby schools with similar poverty levels. This strong attendance likely helps explain why the school delivers dependable results even as its free/reduced lunch rate has climbed from 37.4% to 42.2% over the past few years.

Longmont Estates also shows notable strengths with specific student groups, particularly female students and those from low-income families, who perform well above peer schools statewide. However, the data reveals two internal challenges. The most striking is a grade-level pattern: 4th graders excel, with 73.6% proficient in ELA, but 5th grade ELA falls to 45.2% — more than 12 points below the district average. Science scores have also been volatile, swinging from 55.3% to 36.6% and back to 47.6% over four years. Understanding the 5th-grade dip could be key to moving this already reliable, above-average school from good to great.

Thursday, February 18, 2016

Special needs child went to school there. We were jerked around constantly. His teacher was constantly missing time. The aids were bitter with her, but took it out on the parents. When we complained we experienced retribution. My sons one on one aid was yanked from him and they lied and said we agreed to it. A nightmare. Close Quote
