Eyestone Elementary School

Summary:

Eyestone Elementary School is a public elementary school in Wellington, Colorado, serving 663 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Poudre School District R-1, which is ranked 11th out of 116 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating.

Eyestone Elementary stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (77.07%) compared to nearby schools like Putnam Elementary (34.64%) and Harris Bilingual Elementary (26.03%). However, the school's academic performance, as measured by CMAS test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, Eyestone's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (39.8%) and Math (34.8%) were significantly below the Poudre School District (59.3% and 50.1%, respectively) and the state of Colorado (44.1% and 34.2%, respectively).

Eyestone Elementary's ranking among Colorado elementary schools varies by student subgroup. While the school ranks higher for low socioeconomic status students (164th out of 365 schools in 2023-2024), it ranks much lower for white students (437th out of 539 schools in 2023-2024). Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past several years, from 384th out of 710 Colorado elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 495th out of 943 schools in 2023-2024. These factors suggest that Eyestone Elementary may face underlying challenges, such as resource allocation or support for diverse student needs, that are impacting its overall academic performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
