Granada Elementary School

Summary:

Granada Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Granada, Colorado, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 119 students. The school is part of the Granada School District No. Re-1, which is ranked 100 out of 115 districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Granada Elementary School faces significant academic challenges, with consistently lower test scores and a declining statewide ranking compared to both the state and nearby schools. In 2022-2023, only 26.4% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 43.7%. The school has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (68.91%) and a very high percentage of students (68.91%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. For example, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts at Alta Vista Charter School (60%) was more than double that of Granada Elementary School.

Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.3, which is lower than the surrounding schools, this potential advantage does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's declining academic performance, with its statewide ranking dropping from 285 out of 917 Colorado elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 682 out of 933 in 2022-2023, suggests that the school and district need to implement effective strategies to address the academic needs of its students and improve learning outcomes.

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.
