Summary

Mountain Range High School is a public high school in Westminster, Colorado, serving 1,742 students in grades 9-12. It is part of the Adams 12 Five Star Schools district, which is ranked 52 out of 115 school districts in the state.

While Mountain Range High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 162 out of 221 Colorado high schools in 2021-2022 to 239 out of 328 in 2024-2025, it performs relatively better among Hispanic students, ranking 78 out of 198 Colorado high schools in 2022-2023 for this subgroup. However, the school struggles with lower rankings for other student subgroups, such as White students (ranked 173 out of 234 in 2022-2023) and Gifted and Talented students (ranked 109 out of 135 in 2022-2023). The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated between 83.1% and 91.2% over the past few years, with the most recent rate being 84.2% in 2023-2024.

Compared to nearby schools, Horizon High School and Legacy High School stand out as higher-performing, with stronger statewide rankings, test scores, and graduation rates. In contrast, Thornton High School and Vantage Point perform significantly worse than Mountain Range High School across various metrics. Addressing the school's high chronic absenteeism rate and improving the performance of underperforming student subgroups could be key focus areas for the school's improvement efforts.
