Summary:
The 80902 zip code area in Colorado is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school, all part of the Fountain School District No. 8. While the district as a whole is ranked 85 out of 116 in Colorado and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few schools in the area stand out.
Weikel Elementary School and Carson Middle School are the top performers, with higher test scores and lower student-teacher ratios compared to the other schools in the 80902 zip code. Weikel Elementary has a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, while Carson Middle School has a student-teacher ratio of 15:1, lower than the other schools in the area.
The schools in the 80902 zip code serve a diverse student population, with minority students making up between 53.05% and 59.9% of the student body. However, the majority of the schools perform below the state averages in CMAS/English Language Arts, CMAS/Math, and CMAS/Science, with the schools serving higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch generally having lower academic achievement. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance in the area.
