Summary:
The 80304 zip code area in Colorado is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 2 middle schools, all part of the Boulder Valley School District No. Re2. While the district as a whole is highly ranked, the performance of the individual schools within the area varies significantly, with Foothill Elementary School and Centennial Middle School emerging as the standout performers.
Foothill Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Colorado, with a 5-star rating and the highest test scores across all grades and subjects compared to the other schools in the area. Centennial Middle School also performs well, ranking in the top quarter of Colorado middle schools and having above-average test scores. In contrast, Casey Middle School and Columbine Elementary School appear to be the lower-performing schools, with lower test scores and rankings.
The racial and socioeconomic makeup of the schools seems to be correlated with their academic performance. The higher-performing schools, Foothill Elementary and Centennial Middle, have a larger percentage of white students and lower free and reduced lunch rates, while the lower-performing schools, Columbine Elementary and Casey Middle, have a higher percentage of Hispanic students and higher free and reduced lunch rates. However, the student-teacher ratios are relatively low across all the schools, suggesting that class size may not be a significant factor in their performance.
