Crowley County Junior and Senior High School

Summary:

Crowley County Junior and Senior High School is a public high school in Ordway, Colorado, serving grades 7-12 with a student population of 188. The school is part of the Rocky Ford School District No. R2, which is ranked 101 out of 115 districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crowley County Junior and Senior High School has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (around 48%) and a lower percentage of White students (around 44%). However, the school consistently underperforms the state and nearby school districts in academic measures such as CMAS and SAT/PSAT scores. For example, in 2022-2023, the school's proficiency rates in CMAS English Language Arts (25.9%) and Math (8.6%) were significantly lower than the state averages (43.7% and 32.9%, respectively). Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (around 62%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families compared to the nearby schools, such as Fowler High School and Swink Junior-Senior High School.

Crowley County Junior and Senior High School's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the years, from a high of 75th out of 349 Colorado high schools in 2012-2013 to 259th out of 349 in 2022-2023, with a consistent 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as White students and low-socioeconomic status students, is also concerning, with the school ranking 149th out of 225 Colorado high schools for White students in 2020-2021. These challenges, combined with the school's high student-teacher ratio of 34.4, suggest that Crowley County Junior and Senior High School may face significant obstacles in providing a high-quality education and supporting the needs of its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
