Summary:

The Calhan District No. RJ1 in Colorado is home to two schools: Calhan Secondary School and Calhan Elementary School. Both schools have maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years, indicating a relatively stable level of performance.

Calhan Secondary School stands out for its strong 4-year graduation rate of 84.2% and its performance in 11th-grade science proficiency, where it outperformed the state average. However, the school struggles in English Language Arts and Math, an area that could benefit from targeted interventions. Calhan Elementary School excels in English Language Arts for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades, as well as in 5th-grade science proficiency, but lags behind in Math.

Both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 27.7% and significant economic challenges, as evidenced by their high free and reduced lunch rates (over 50%). These factors may impact academic performance and require additional support and resources. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive overview of the schools in the Calhan District No. RJ1, highlighting their strengths, weaknesses, and areas for potential improvement.
