The school's statewide ranking has remained consistent at 238 out of 349 Colorado high schools in 2022-2023, but it benefits from an even lower student-to-teacher ratio of 9.3. Both schools also face socioeconomic challenges, with free/reduced lunch rates of 32.62% at the elementary/middle school and 43.75% at the high school.
