Summary

Windsor Charter Academy Elementary School is a K-5 charter school in Windsor, Colorado, serving 780 students as part of the Weld County Reorganized School District No. Re-4. It is consistently one of the highest-performing elementary schools in the area, ranking 122nd out of 943 Colorado elementary schools — the 87th percentile — with a 4-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year.

Students here score well above district and state averages on Colorado's CMAS assessments. In English Language Arts, 69.8% of students are proficient, compared to 49% across the district and 44.7% statewide. Math proficiency is 60.6%, versus 42.4% for the district and 37.3% for the state, and 5th-grade science proficiency is 56.5% compared to 36.1% statewide. Within its own district, Windsor Charter outranks every nearby elementary by a wide margin — its ELA proficiency is about 14 points higher than Grandview Elementary School and nearly 29 points higher than Skyview Elementary School and Hollister Lake Elementary. The only nearby school that scores higher is Bethke Elementary School, located in the nearby Poudre School District R-1.

Windsor Charter also stands out for attendance: just 6.9% of students are chronically absent, compared to 17.4% districtwide and 28.4% statewide. That consistency in the classroom is likely a big reason the school has ranked in the top 15% of Colorado elementary schools for nearly a decade, with percentile rankings between 75 and 92 since 2015-2016. The school manages this even with a higher student-teacher ratio (20.3) than most nearby schools and a free/reduced lunch rate that has risen from 9% to 16.4% over the past few years — evidence that its strong results are no fluke.

I have gone to WCA for eight years now and found this school to be amazing. The teachers care about us and there is a family enviornment. We are given an opporunity to push ourselves as students. I would reccomend this school to anybody. Close Quote
