Summary

Valley View Innovation School is an elementary school located in Denver, Colorado, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 121 students. This school is part of the Mapleton School District No. 1, which is ranked 102 out of 115 school districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Valley View Innovation School stands out as a relatively high-performing school within the Mapleton School District, with strong academic results in certain subject areas and grade levels. For example, 52.6% of 5th-grade students are proficient or better in CMAS/Science, compared to 15.7% for the district and 39% for the state. Additionally, 57.9% of 5th-grade students are proficient or better in CMAS/English Language Arts, compared to 28.5% for the district and 48% for the state. However, the school's overall performance in CMAS/English Language Arts (33.3% proficient or better) and CMAS/Math (23% proficient or better) for all grades lags behind the state averages.

The school's low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.9 to 14.4 over the past few years, is lower than the nearby Fairview Pk-8 and Colorado Sports Leadership Academy, both of which are part of the Westminster Public Schools district and have significantly lower academic performance. However, the school's significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 27.7% in 2023-2024 to 38.7% in 2023-2024, is a concern and may be impacting its academic outcomes.
