Summary

Midland Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with an enrollment of 133 students. The school faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism, low academic achievement, and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Midland Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.6% to 29.2% over the past 3 school years, which is significantly higher than the Colorado Springs School District No. 11 and state averages. The school also lags behind the district and state in proficiency rates across all CMAS subjects and grade levels, with only 29.2% of Midland students proficient or better in ELA and 26.2% in Math, compared to 38.9% and 31.1% for the district, and 44.8% and 35.9% for the state. Additionally, Midland Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.84% to 80.45% over the past 3 years, much higher than the district and state averages.

While Midland Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, several nearby schools, such as Academy for Advanced and Creative Learning, Steele Elementary, and Buena Vista Elementary, significantly outperform Midland on test scores and other metrics. Additionally, the nearby Cheyenne Mountain School District, ranked 2nd out of 115 districts in Colorado, has several high-performing elementary schools that also outshine Midland. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes for Midland's students.
