Summary:
The Miami-Yoder Joint District No. 60 in Colorado is home to a single elementary school, Miami/Yoder Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 161 students. While this school is the only option for elementary education in the district, its performance has been consistently below the state average in Colorado, ranking in the bottom half of elementary schools for the past three school years.
Miami/Yoder Elementary School's student population is predominantly White (67.7%), with a significant Hispanic population (27.33%) and a small percentage of students of two or more races (4.97%). The school's proficiency rates on CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) tests are notably lower than the state averages, particularly in Math and Science, suggesting a need for improvement in these subject areas. Additionally, nearly half of the student population (48.45%) is eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students who may require additional support.
The school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 20.6 could be a contributing factor to its academic challenges, as it may impact the ability of teachers to provide individualized attention and support to students. Overall, the data suggests that Miami/Yoder Elementary School is facing significant challenges in academic achievement and may benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and close the performance gaps with the state averages.
