Primero Reorganized School District No. 2

The Primero Reorganized School District No. 2 in Colorado serves two schools: Primero Elementary School and Primero Junior-Senior High School. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students compared to the district and state averages.

Primero Elementary School stands out for its strong performance in CMAS English Language Arts, with proficiency rates above the district and state averages. However, the school's high student-teacher ratio of 19.8 may impact the quality of instruction and contribute to its relatively lower performance in CMAS Math. In contrast, Primero Junior-Senior High School struggles with low proficiency rates in CMAS Math, well below the district and state averages, but excels in PSAT9 and PSAT10 Reading and Writing, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the district and state.

Overall, the data suggests the need for targeted interventions and support, particularly at the high school level, to address the academic performance gaps and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Primero Reorganized School District No. 2. The district's diverse student population and the varying performance of its schools highlight the importance of culturally responsive teaching practices and personalized attention to meet the needs of all learners.
