Summary:
The city of Mancos, Colorado is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Mancos School District Re-6.

Mancos Elementary School stands out for its relatively high percentage of White students (74.75%) and consistently low rankings, with a 2-star rating over the past 3 years. However, the school's small student-teacher ratio of 11.6 suggests a focus on individualized attention. In contrast, Mancos High School has significantly lower test scores, particularly in mathematics, compared to state averages, despite a similar racial makeup to the elementary school.
The Mancos Middle School has the highest percentage of White students (78.07%) among the three schools and has maintained a 2-3 star rating in recent years. However, like the other schools, it faces challenges with a high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients (54.39%) and a moderate student-teacher ratio of 15.2. Overall, the schools in Mancos, Colorado appear to be grappling with issues of academic performance, socioeconomic disparities, and a lack of diversity, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students.
