Summary

Webster Elementary School is a K–5 elementary school in Colorado Springs, CO, serving 582 students in School District No. 3. The school currently ranks in the 40th percentile of Colorado elementary schools, earning 2 stars — a decline from recent years when it sat near the 51st percentile and well below its pre-pandemic standing near the 60th percentile. Webster serves a moderately high-need population, with 47.9% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

The most striking academic pattern is a "third-grade strength, fourth-grade cliff." Webster's 3rd graders scored at or above state averages in both reading (49.5% proficient vs. 40.8% statewide) and math (41.2% vs. 41.5%). By 4th grade, proficiency collapses to 27.7% in reading and 23.2% in math — far below state averages. Nearby schools like French Elementary School and Martin Luther King Junior Elementary School show steady improvement across grades, making Webster's drop unusual. The school also saw 5th-grade science proficiency tumble from 43.4% to 26.3% in a single year, ending a three-year run of above-average science results.

Webster does have bright spots. Chronic absenteeism is 22.4%, notably better than the district (29.1%) and state (28.4%) averages, and far better than nearby Sunrise Elementary School, Venetucci Elementary School, and Aragon Elementary School. The school has also been notably effective for its Hispanic students, who have ranked in the 75th–77th percentile statewide for three straight years. However, Webster is one of the largest elementary schools in the area, with a student-teacher ratio of 17.7 — higher than Talbott STEAM Innovation School (13.9) and Widefield Elementary of the Arts (14.0). Families weighing options in the area should know that several nearby schools post stronger results while serving similar levels of economic need.
