Summary:
The Grand Valley School District No. 16 in Colorado is home to two elementary schools: Bea Underwood Elementary School and Grand Valley Center for Family Learning. Both schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by their high free and reduced lunch rates, which are higher than the state average.
Academically, the schools in the Grand Valley School District No. 16 are struggling, with Bea Underwood Elementary School ranking 920 out of 943 Colorado elementary schools and having significantly lower proficiency rates in CMAS/English Language Arts, CMAS/Math, and CMAS/Science compared to state and district averages. The lack of statewide ranking information for Grand Valley Center for Family Learning makes it difficult to fully assess its performance, but the available data suggests that it is also underperforming.
The slightly higher student-teacher ratios at both schools may also be a contributing factor to the academic challenges, as it could impact the quality of individual attention students receive. Overall, the data indicates that the elementary schools in the Grand Valley School District No. 16 are facing significant academic and socioeconomic challenges that require further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
