Best Public Schools in Bennett, CO


Summary:

The city of Bennett, Colorado is home to 4 schools serving grades K-12, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Bennett School District No. 29J. While the district as a whole struggles with below-average performance on standardized tests, Bennett Intermediate School stands out as a relatively stronger performer, particularly in science and English language arts. Additionally, Bennett Elementary School has the lowest student-teacher ratio and the highest school rating in the district.

The schools in Bennett have a diverse student population, with varying percentages of White, Hispanic, and other racial/ethnic groups. However, the district faces challenges, with all schools ranking in the bottom half of their respective school types in Colorado, and the district as a whole ranked 101 out of 116 districts in the state. This is reflected in the generally below-average proficiency rates on CMAS/PSAT/SAT assessments across the schools.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across the schools indicate that the district serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may be a contributing factor to the overall low academic performance and could point to potential equity issues that need to be addressed. The variation in student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests that this metric may play a role in the schools' performance, with the lower ratio at Bennett Elementary School potentially contributing to its relatively higher performance.
