Eaton Elementary School

Summary:

Eaton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 426 students in grades K-5 in Eaton, Colorado, which is part of the highly-ranked Weld County School District No. Re-2. This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages, ranking in the top third of Colorado elementary schools with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eaton Elementary's academic performance is particularly impressive, with 51.9% of students proficient or better in CMAS/English Language Arts and 50.5% in CMAS/Math, compared to the district averages of 47.2% and 41.6%, respectively, and the state averages of 44.1% and 34.2%. The school's strong performance extends to its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, who rank 14th out of 265 Colorado elementary schools in this category. In contrast, nearby Maplewood Elementary in the Greeley School District No. 6 has much lower proficiency rates of 12.1% in English Language Arts and 3.8% in Math.

Eaton Elementary's consistent academic performance, high rankings, and effective support for its diverse student population, including a significant Hispanic student population, make it a standout school in the region. The school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (30.05%) suggests it may have a more affluent student population, which could contribute to its strong academic results. Overall, Eaton Elementary provides a high-quality education that sets it apart from many of the nearby schools in the area.

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.
