Summary

Cripple Creek-Victor Junior-Senior High School is a very small combined middle and high school in Cripple Creek, Colorado, serving just 162 students in grades 6 through 12 and operating as the only secondary school in the Cripple Creek-Victor School District No. Re-1. The school serves a high-poverty community, with 70.4% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch — roughly double the rate at most nearby schools and nearly four times the rate at Cheyenne Mountain High School. The district itself ranks near the bottom of Colorado districts at 104 out of 115.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, particularly in math. Only 5.2% of students were proficient in math on the CMAS assessment in 2025-2026, compared to 37.3% statewide, and 11th-grade SAT reading/writing proficiency was just 25% versus 60% statewide. Reading scores are relatively stronger but still below average — 13.8% ELA proficiency on CMAS versus 44.7% statewide, and 62% PSAT9 reading/writing versus 66% statewide. By comparison, nearby schools like Manitou Springs High School, Woodland Park High School, and Cheyenne Mountain High School all score dramatically higher on these measures despite also serving mountain communities west of Colorado Springs.

Chronic absenteeism is a crisis-level concern: 56.7% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, more than four times the rate at Manitou Springs High School (10.1%) and Cheyenne Mountain High School (12.4%), and similar only to Coronado High School (54.3%). The graduation rate of 74.3% trails the state average of 85.6% and every nearby comparison school. The school does have some assets to build on — a low 13:1 student-teacher ratio and occasional bright spots, such as an 81% graduation rate in 2022-2023 and 11th-grade science proficiency that briefly topped the state. However, these gains have been inconsistent, suggesting the most urgent levers for improvement are attendance, graduation stability, and foundational math skills.
