2025-2026
Prairie Hills Elementary serves approximately 350 students in grades K?5. Enrollment reflects a diverse population with students representing multiple cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds, including a significant proportion of multilingual learners.

tment of Education rates Prairie Hills as Performance , with overall achievement remaining above state averages. However, trend data over the past three years (CMAS and district assessments) indicate a gradual decline in both literacy and math achievement. While growth has been inconsistent across grade levels, subgroup data reveal persistent gaps for multilingual learners and students with IEPs. This indicates a need for targeted supports, greater instructional consistency, and a focus on equity in access to rigorous learning opportunities. To address these challenges, Prairie Hills is prioritizing small group instruction, strengthening Tier 1 instruction aligned to Colorado Academic Standards, and using PLC structures to analyze student work and progress monitoring data. The school will also emphasize strategies that build academic language, foster engagement in rigorous tasks, and support students? social-emotional well-being, ensuring that every learner has the opportunity to succeed and grow.
