Summary

Cedaredge Middle School is a public middle school in Cedaredge, Colorado, serving 189 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Delta County Joint District No. 50, which is ranked 38 out of 115 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Cedaredge Middle School's performance on CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) tests is generally below the state and district averages, with lower proficiency rates in subjects like science and math. However, the school outperforms the district and state in English Language Arts for 7th grade. Interestingly, Cedaredge Middle School ranks in the top 25% of Colorado middle schools for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, suggesting the school is effectively supporting this student population. In contrast, the school's performance for White students has been relatively lower.

While Cedaredge Middle School maintains low dropout rates, it faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be impacting its overall academic performance. The school's small size of 189 students could allow for more personalized attention, and there may be opportunities for collaboration with nearby schools, such as Delta Middle School, which has similar academic performance, to share effective teaching practices and strategies.
