Summary:
The Weld County School District No. Re-9 in Colorado is home to a single high school, Highland High School, which serves grades 9-12. The district as a whole is ranked 91 out of 115 school districts in Colorado and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating potential systemic challenges that may be impacting the performance of its lone high school.
Highland High School's academic performance on various standardized tests is mixed compared to district and state averages. While the school's science proficiency matches the district average, its reading/writing and mathematics scores fall short of state benchmarks. Additionally, over 37% of Highland High School's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The school's student population is also predominantly White, with a relatively small percentage of other racial/ethnic groups represented.
These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic performance challenges at Highland High School. Strategies to improve student outcomes should consider the socioeconomic factors and lack of diversity within the school, as well as potential district-level issues that may be contributing to the overall performance of Weld County School District No. Re-9.
