About Fraser Valley Elementary School
Fraser Valley Elementary School serves 239 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in Fraser, Colorado. With a student-teacher ratio of 11.4 to 1, classes stay small and teachers maintain close contact with every student. The school earns a composite score of 9.4 out of 10, rated Exceptional, with academic and growth scores of 9.4 and 9.3 respectively.
That performance places Fraser Valley second among 1,006 Colorado elementary schools and fourth among all 1,815 public schools statewide — outperforming 100 percent of schools across Colorado. Within East Grand School District No. 2, it ranks first out of four schools. Both the academic and growth scores matter here.
High academic scores can reflect an already-advantaged student population, but a 9.3 growth score signals that students are making strong gains regardless of where they start. That combination — top-tier achievement and top-tier growth — is what separates Fraser Valley from schools that do well on only one dimension. For parents weighing elementary options in the Fraser area, the data makes a clear case.
