Littleton School District No. 6

Summary:

The Littleton School District No. 6 in Colorado is home to 20 schools, including 13 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district is highly ranked, placing 11th out of 115 districts in the state and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, there is significant variation in the performance of individual schools within the district.

The top-performing schools in the district include Arapahoe High School, which ranks 21st out of 328 Colorado high schools, Newton Middle School, which ranks 34th out of 469 Colorado middle schools, and Lois Lenski Elementary School, which ranks 61st out of 950 Colorado elementary schools. These schools boast impressive test scores, high graduation rates, and low dropout rates.

In contrast, some schools in the district struggle with lower academic performance, particularly those with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that socioeconomic factors play a significant role in student outcomes within the district. Additionally, the district as a whole faces a concerning trend of high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for the district to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students.
