Summary:
The 81507 zip code area is home to three high-performing schools: two elementary schools, Wingate Elementary and Scenic Elementary, and one middle school, Redlands Middle School. These schools consistently rank among the top in Colorado, with Wingate and Scenic both earning 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger and ranking in the top 80 elementary schools in the state.
Wingate Elementary and Scenic Elementary stand out for their exceptional academic performance, with over 70% of students proficient or better in CMAS English Language Arts and Math across all grades. Both schools also demonstrate particularly strong 5th grade CMAS Science scores, with proficiency rates more than double the district and state averages. Mesa County Valley School District No. 51 can be proud of these two elementary schools, which are clearly providing a high-quality education to their students.
While the elementary schools excel, Redlands Middle School also maintains a strong academic standing, consistently outperforming the district and state averages in CMAS English Language Arts and Math. However, the schools in the 81507 zip code serve a predominantly white student population, which is not representative of the broader diversity in Colorado. This is an area that warrants further investigation and potential action to ensure equitable access to high-quality education for all students in the community.
