Summary:

The Trinidad School District 1 in Colorado consists of 3 schools: 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school. The district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.14% to 84.84% across the schools.

Academically, the schools in the district generally perform below state averages on standardized tests, particularly in Math. However, Fisher's Peak Elementary School stands out with relatively strong 3rd grade English Language Arts and Math scores. In contrast, Trinidad High School struggles, with only 12% of 11th graders proficient or better in CMAS Science and 8% proficient or better in SAT Math.

A major concern across all three schools is the extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.7% to 27.7%. This issue likely has a significant impact on student learning and achievement. Despite these academic challenges, Trinidad High School maintains a decent 4-year graduation rate of 84.2% and a low dropout rate of 1.9%, suggesting the district is effective in supporting students to complete their high school education.
