Summary:
The 80731 zip code is home to two schools, Haxtun Elementary School and Haxtun Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Haxtun School District No. Re-2J. While the schools share some similarities, such as a predominantly white student population and relatively low student-teacher ratios, they also exhibit distinct differences in academic performance.
Haxtun Elementary School struggles with significantly below-average CMAS test scores in both English Language Arts and Math, with proficiency rates ranging from 19.2% to 29.2% compared to state averages of 34.2% to 44.1%. In contrast, Haxtun Junior/Senior High School shows more mixed results, with English Language Arts scores close to the state average but Math scores well below the state average. The high school's SAT and PSAT scores follow a similar pattern, with Reading and Writing scores at or above the state average but Math scores significantly lagging.
Both schools have relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. However, the student-teacher ratios are relatively low, suggesting a potentially more personalized learning environment. Overall, the data highlights areas of strength, such as the high Reading and Writing performance at the high school level, but also significant challenges, particularly in Math and overall academic achievement, that the Haxtun schools may need to address.
