Dos Rios Elementary School

Summary:

Dos Rios Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Evans, Colorado, serving grades K-5 with a student population of 480. The school is part of the Greeley School District No. 6, which is ranked 97 out of 116 school districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dos Rios Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (75%) compared to the state and district averages, and over 80% of its students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Academically, the school consistently underperforms the state and district averages on CMAS assessments, with only 16.7% of Dos Rios students proficient or better in ELA in 2023-2024, compared to 44.1% statewide. As a result, Dos Rios is ranked in the bottom 20% of Colorado elementary schools, with a ranking of 878 out of 943 schools in 2023-2024 and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Compared to nearby schools in the Greeley School District, such as Chappelow K-8 Magnet School, which ranks in the top 35% of Colorado elementary schools, Dos Rios performs significantly worse. The school's struggles to support its Hispanic and low-socioeconomic status students, who rank in the bottom 25% and bottom 35% of Colorado elementary schools, respectively, suggest that Dos Rios may face significant challenges in terms of resources, staffing, and support for its students.

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.
