Middle Schools in Delta County Joint District No. 50


Summary:

The Delta County Joint District No. 50 in Colorado is home to three middle schools: Delta Middle School, Cedaredge Middle School, and Delta Academy of Applied Learning. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.

Among the three middle schools, Cedaredge Middle School appears to be the strongest performer, with higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Delta Middle School generally lags behind the district and state in academic performance. The small size and low student-teacher ratio of Delta Academy of Applied Learning make it a unique option, but more information is needed to fully understand its educational approach and outcomes.

Across the middle schools in the Delta County Joint District No. 50, high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage, as indicated by free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, are areas of concern that may impact student success. Addressing these challenges and leveraging the strengths of the higher-performing schools could help ensure all students in the district receive a quality education.
