Elementary Schools in Summit School District No. Re 1

The Summit School District No. Re 1 in Colorado is home to 6 elementary schools serving students from preschool through 5th grade. These schools, located in the scenic mountain towns of Dillon, Silverthorne, Frisco, and Breckenridge, provide educational opportunities for the local community.

Among the standout schools in the district, Upper Blue Elementary and Breckenridge Elementary consistently perform above the district and state averages on CMAS tests for English Language Arts and Math. Upper Blue boasts the highest proficiency rates in the district for 5th grade Science, all grade ELA, and 5th grade Math, while Breckenridge leads in 5th grade Science, all grade ELA, and 3rd grade ELA. These high-performing schools also have relatively low student-teacher ratios.

In contrast, Dillon Valley Elementary and Silverthorne Elementary tend to have lower test scores, indicating a significant performance gap within the district. This disparity may be linked to the schools' higher rates of economic disadvantage, as measured by free and reduced-price lunch eligibility. Across the district, the high chronic absenteeism rate is an area of concern that the Summit School District No. Re 1 will need to address to support student success.
