Summary:

The Miami-Yoder Joint District No. 60 in Colorado contains a single elementary school, Miami/Yoder Elementary School, which serves students from preschool through 5th grade. The school's performance data suggests it is struggling to provide a high-quality education for its students, with consistently low rankings, poor test scores, and high rates of chronic absenteeism.

Miami/Yoder Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Colorado elementary schools, with a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger in the most recent school years. The school's test scores are significantly below the state averages in key subjects like English Language Arts and Math, with some grades performing particularly poorly. For example, in 3rd grade English Language Arts, only 16.7% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 42%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.7%, which can negatively impact student learning and academic progress.

Additionally, the school serves a population with a high level of economic disadvantage, with nearly 70% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This can present additional challenges in terms of student achievement and access to resources. Overall, the data suggests that Miami/Yoder Elementary School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education for its students, and addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive approach that addresses both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.
