Stratton Senior High School

Summary:

Stratton Senior High School is a small public high school in Stratton, Colorado, serving 62 students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly White student population (77.42%), with a significant Hispanic presence (20.97%) and a small percentage of Native American students (1.61%).

Academically, Stratton Senior High School has shown mixed performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 38th out of 279 Colorado high schools in 2003-2004 to 277th out of 388 in 2017-2018. However, the school maintains a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating average academic performance compared to other Colorado high schools. While the school excels in 11th-grade science proficiency, its SAT reading, writing, and math scores lag behind the state averages. Interestingly, Stratton Senior High outperforms the nearby Burlington High School in most academic metrics, including higher test scores and a lower student-teacher ratio.

The high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients at Stratton Senior High School (ranging from 35.48% to 49.15%) suggests that a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which may impact the school's resources and academic outcomes. Despite these challenges, the school's small size and low student-teacher ratio provide a more personalized learning environment for students. As the school continues to navigate its academic performance, a closer examination of its strategies and resource allocation could help address any socioeconomic factors and build on its strengths in science and PSAT9 performance.

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.
