Hayden School District No. Re 1

The Hayden School District No. Re 1 in Colorado operates three schools: Hayden Valley Elementary School, Hayden High School, and Hayden Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with test scores generally below state averages, suggesting room for improvement in academic performance.

Hayden Valley Elementary School has the largest enrollment with 245 students, but its test scores are the lowest in the district, with only 25% of 5th graders proficient or better in CMAS/Science and around 20-25% proficient or better in CMAS/ELA and Math. In contrast, Hayden Middle School stands out as the highest-performing school, with test scores closer to the state averages and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.2.

The district's racial makeup is predominantly white, ranging from 78.72% at Hayden Middle School to 84.49% at Hayden Valley Elementary School. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 24.35% at Hayden High School to 35.11% at Hayden Middle School. These factors may contribute to the district's academic challenges and could be areas for further investigation and improvement efforts.
