High Schools in Fremont Re-1

The Fremont Re-1 school district in Colorado has only one high school, Canon City High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has a predominantly white student population, it faces challenges with lower-than-average test scores, particularly in mathematics, and a relatively high free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

Canon City High School's 11th-grade science proficiency rate is slightly above the state average, but its reading, writing, and math proficiency rates are all lower than the state averages. The school's 9th and 10th-grade math proficiency rates are also significantly below the state benchmarks, suggesting a need for improvement in math instruction and support. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 17.2 is slightly higher than the recommended 15:1 ratio, which may impact the level of individual attention students receive.

Despite these challenges, Canon City High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 166th out of 221 Colorado high schools in 2021-2022 to 205th out of 349 in 2022-2023. This decline in performance compared to other schools in the state highlights the need for the school and the Fremont Re-1 district to focus on improving academic outcomes, particularly in mathematics, and addressing the needs of their economically disadvantaged student population.
