Summary:
The 80640 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the School District 27J. While the district as a whole is ranked 82 out of 116 in Colorado and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few schools in the area stand out with stronger academic performance.
Belle Creek Charter School, a public charter elementary/middle school, has the highest overall CMAS proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math compared to the other schools in the area. John W Thimmig Elementary School also performs well, with the second-highest overall CMAS proficiency rates. In contrast, Henderson Elementary School struggles across the board, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages.
The data also reveals significant achievement gaps between the schools, the district, and the state. For example, in 8th grade CMAS Math, school scores range from 9% to 20.3% proficient, compared to the state average of 32.5%. However, Prairie View High School stands out for its racial diversity, with a student body that is 56.56% Hispanic and 31.03% White, which could be an asset for the school and district to leverage.
