Summary:
The Roaring Fork School District No. Re-1 in Colorado is home to 4 high schools: Glenwood Springs High School, Roaring Fork High School, Basalt High School, and Bridges. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.
Roaring Fork High School stands out as the top-performing school in the district, ranking 162nd out of 328 Colorado high schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores, particularly in SAT Reading/Writing and PSAT Mathematics, are generally higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, Bridges has the smallest enrollment but the lowest student-teacher ratio, indicating a more personalized learning environment. However, Bridges also has the highest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Despite the differences in school performance and student demographics, all 4 high schools in the Roaring Fork School District No. Re-1 maintain a consistent 84.2% four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year, which is on par with the district and state averages. However, the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of around 27.7% is a potential area of concern that may impact student learning and achievement. The district may need to address these disparities in academic performance through targeted interventions and support to ensure more equitable outcomes for all students.
