Summary

American Legacy Academy is a K–8 school in Windsor, CO, serving 419 students as part of the Weld County Reorganized School District No. Re-4. The school has made a notable climb in state rankings over the past two years, moving from 529th (44th percentile) in 2024–2025 to 371st (61st percentile) in 2025–2026 — an improvement of 158 spots. That upward trajectory stands out among nearby schools: Range View Elementary, Skyview Elementary School, Mountain View Elementary School, and Windsor Charter Academy Elementary School all held steady or declined during the same period.

Attendance is a clear strength. Just 11.0% of American Legacy Academy students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared to 17.4% for the district and 28.4% statewide. Only Windsor Charter Academy Elementary School has a lower rate (6.9%) among nearby schools. The school also shows genuine strength in elementary literacy: 3rd grade ELA proficiency is 44.4%, 4th grade is 54.8%, and 5th grade is 55.0% — all above state averages. That attendance and literacy foundation gives the school real momentum to build on.

Math, however, is the school's biggest challenge. All-grades math proficiency is 31.7%, the lowest among same-district elementary schools and well below the district rate of 42.4% and state rate of 37.3%. The problem is especially acute by middle school: 7th grade math proficiency is just 11.1%, compared to 35.1% for the district and 32.9% for the state. Math proficiency declines sharply as students progress, from 48.9% in 3rd grade to 11.1% by 7th grade. The contrast with Windsor Charter Academy Elementary School — which serves the same district with a nearly identical student-teacher ratio of 20.3 but posts 60.6% math proficiency — suggests the gap is tied more to instructional approach than class size. American Legacy Academy is clearly improving overall, but closing the middle school math gap is the key to becoming a top-tier school.
