Summary

Coyote Ridge Elementary School serves 392 students in grades K-5 in Broomfield, CO, and it is one of the top-performing elementary schools in Colorado—ranking 107th of 943 schools statewide (89th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025-2026 after earning 5 stars in each of the two previous years. This stands out even more because the school's district, Adams 12 Five Star Schools, ranks only near the middle of Colorado districts, yet Coyote Ridge consistently posts results that rival schools in much higher-ranked districts.

Academically, Coyote Ridge's proficiency rates are far above district and state averages: 67.2% of students are proficient in ELA (vs. 44.7% statewide), 64.7% in math (vs. 37.3%), and 57.4% in 5th-grade science (vs. 36.1%). Nearby Meridian Elementary School (93rd percentile) and Thunder Vista P-8 (86th percentile) are also strong, but Coyote Ridge outpaces Aspen Creek K-8 School—located less than a mile away in the Boulder Valley School District—by more than 18 points in math, despite Aspen Creek belonging to a higher-ranked district.

Families also benefit from exceptionally low chronic absenteeism (7.8% vs. 28.4% statewide) and a relatively low poverty rate (16.6% free/reduced lunch) compared with most nearby schools. However, there are areas to watch: gifted/talented students ranked in just the 30th percentile, and math proficiency declines from 71.7% in 3rd grade to 60.7% in 5th grade, even as ELA rises. Even so, a decade of elite results makes Coyote Ridge one of the strongest elementary options in the region.
