Adams 12 Five Star Schools

Summary:

The Adams 12 Five Star Schools district in Colorado serves over 39,000 students across 54 schools, including 35 elementary schools, 7 middle schools, 8 high schools, and 4 alternative schools.

The district has a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools. Hulstrom K-8 and Coyote Ridge Elementary School are among the top-ranked elementary schools in the state, while Prospect Ridge Academy and Stargate Charter School are high-performing alternative schools. The district's middle schools, such as Rocky Top Middle School and Westlake Middle School, also stand out as relative strengths.

However, the district faces challenges with chronic absenteeism, which is higher than the state average, and significant performance gaps between its highest and lowest-performing schools. Schools with higher rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores, highlighting the impact of socioeconomic factors on student achievement. Overall, the Adams 12 Five Star Schools district has room for improvement in ensuring equitable educational opportunities and outcomes across all its schools.
