Summary:
East Grand School District No. 2 in Granby, Colorado, is served by a single middle school, East Grand Middle School, which enrolls 304 students in grades 6–8. Since there is just one middle school in the district, this analysis focuses entirely on how this school compares to state averages and its own recent performance. The school has received a 3-star rating for 2025–2026, down from 4 stars the previous year, placing it at the 60th percentile among 469 Colorado middle schools.
Academically, East Grand Middle School shows a mixed picture. In 2025–2026, overall English Language Arts proficiency was 45.9%, just above the state's 44.7%, with particularly strong results in 6th and 8th grade. Science is a clear strength, as 43.5% of 8th graders scored proficient, well above the state's 35.4% and an improvement from the prior year. Math is the biggest challenge, with only 31.0% proficient versus 37.3% statewide. A pronounced 7th-grade dip appears across subjects, but it is most severe in math, where just 18.7% of 7th graders met proficiency compared to 32.9% statewide.
Beyond test scores, chronic absenteeism is a concern: 31.1% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, higher than the state's 28.4% but better than the district average of 33.0%. The school historically had a 0.0% dropout rate, and the student-teacher ratio of 13.5 to 1 suggests reasonably small classes. About 30.6% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, indicating a moderate level of economic need. However, both ELA and math proficiency declined from the previous year, and the state ranking has slipped from the 72nd percentile to the 60th. Addressing the 7th-grade math gap and improving attendance could help reverse this trend.
