Summary

Belmont Elementary School is a public elementary school in Pueblo, Colorado, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 418 students. The school is part of the Pueblo School District No. 60, which is ranked 105 out of 115 districts in Colorado and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Belmont Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Colorado elementary schools, with a ranking between 754 and 842 out of 921-950 schools over the past 5 years. The school's performance on CMAS tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates of 21.5% in ELA and 20.7% in Math, compared to the state averages of 44.8% and 35.9%, respectively. Belmont also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 43.0% over the past 3 years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. However, the school's performance for Hispanic students and low-socioeconomic status (SES) students is better than the district and state averages, suggesting that the school may be providing additional support for these subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools in the Pueblo School District, such as Irving Elementary, Park View Elementary, and Haaff Elementary, Belmont's academic performance is generally lower. However, schools outside the district, such as Fountain International Magnet School and Villa Bella Expeditionary School, have significantly higher academic performance than Belmont Elementary. Despite the school's overall low performance, the fact that Belmont has been able to maintain a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement with the right interventions and support.
