Elementary Schools in Yuma 1 School District


Summary:

The Yuma 1 School District in Colorado has only one elementary school, Kenneth P Morris Elementary School, which serves grades K-4 with a total enrollment of 325 students. The school's academic performance, as measured by CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) proficiency rates, has consistently fallen below the state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Math over the past three school years.

While the student population at Kenneth P Morris Elementary is predominantly White (49.23%) and Hispanic (48.92%), the school serves a high percentage of students (61.85%) who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a lower socioeconomic status. This factor may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school. Additionally, the Yuma 1 School District is ranked 76 out of 116 school districts in Colorado and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, suggesting that the district as a whole may be facing difficulties in providing high-quality education to its students.

The lack of diversity in the student population, with very small percentages of African American, Native American, and students of two or more races, is another area that may warrant further investigation to ensure an inclusive and representative learning environment for all students. Overall, the analysis of the data set reveals significant academic performance concerns at Kenneth P Morris Elementary School, which may require targeted interventions and support to improve student learning outcomes.
