Best Public Schools in Springfield, CO


Summary:

The city of Springfield, Colorado is home to two schools - Springfield Elementary School and Springfield Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Springfield School District No. Re-4. While the schools serve different grade levels, they face similar challenges in terms of academic performance and serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.

Springfield Elementary School stands out for having a higher percentage of white students (72.78%) compared to the state average, as well as a free/reduced lunch rate of 61.54%. However, the school's test scores are significantly below the state average, with only 22.6% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts. In contrast, Springfield Junior/Senior High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 4 stars to 2 stars over the past few years, despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.1:1.

Overall, the data suggests that the schools in the Springfield school district are struggling to provide a high-quality education to their students. Both elementary and high school students are performing well below state averages on standardized tests, and the high rates of economic disadvantage among the student population likely contribute to these academic challenges. Addressing these issues will require a concerted effort by the district to allocate resources, improve teaching and learning, and support the needs of the community.
