Summary

Wray Junior Senior High School is a small rural school in Wray, Colorado, serving 322 students in grades 7 through 12 as part of the Wray Rd-2 School District. It is the only school within 20 miles, so there are no nearby schools to compare it against directly. The school's overall state ranking is middling: in 2025-2026 it ranked 199 out of 338 schools statewide, landing in the 41st percentile with a 2-star rating. That represents a step back from the prior year, when it ranked 160th (51st percentile, 3 stars). Over the past decade, the school has swung between the 31st and 64th percentiles, so some year-to-year movement is normal for a school this size.

The school's biggest strength is graduation. The graduation rate has been consistently well above the state average, reaching 94.4% in 2024-2025 compared to 85.6% statewide, and dropout rates are low. However, chronic absenteeism is a major concern — 52.7% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, roughly double the state rate of 28.4%. Academically, math is the clearest weakness, with proficiency lagging the state at nearly every grade level, including SAT math where just 23% of 11th graders are proficient versus 32% statewide. Reading and writing results are mixed: 10th graders outperformed the state on PSAT10 reading and writing (67% vs. 65%), but 8th grade ELA and 11th grade SAT reading and writing trailed state averages.

Recent academic struggles have been uneven across student groups. Performance for male students and low-income students has declined notably relative to statewide peers, and the school serves a student body where about 56% now qualify for free or reduced lunch. On a positive note, the student-teacher ratio of 15:1 is favorable and provides an opportunity for more individualized support. In short, Wray excels at graduating students, but addressing chronic absenteeism and math achievement — along with targeted support for struggling subgroups — will be essential to reversing the recent downward trend.
