Hoff Elementary School

Summary:

Hoff Elementary School is a public elementary school in Keenesburg, Colorado, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Weld County School District Re-3j. While the school generally outperforms the district and state averages in academic assessments, it has some unique characteristics that set it apart from the surrounding schools.

Hoff Elementary has a higher percentage of White students (56.11%) compared to nearby schools like Leo William Butler Elementary (69.55% Hispanic) and Hudson Elementary (49.84% Hispanic). The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to surrounding schools. However, Hoff Elementary's racial diversity has been declining, with a decrease in the percentage of Hispanic students from 37.62% in 2022-2023 to 22.67% in 2020-2021.

Academically, Hoff Elementary School generally performs better than the district and state averages in CMAS assessments for English Language Arts and Math. However, the school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, and its performance for specific student subgroups, such as White students and low-socioeconomic status students, is lower than its overall ranking. While Hoff outperforms the district and state, it lags behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Cardinal Community Academy Charter School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Colorado.

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.
