Summary

Blevins Middle School is a grades 6–8 school in Fort Collins, Colorado, serving 363 students as part of Poudre School District R-1—a district ranked 12th out of 115 in Colorado. Within that strong district, Blevins is a stable, mid-tier school: it earned a 3-star rating and ranked in the 57th percentile of Colorado middle schools in 2025-26. Blevins differs from nearby Poudre peers in one notable way: about 52% of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a higher share than most surrounding middle schools.

The school's biggest challenge is chronic absenteeism. In 2024-25, 43% of Blevins students were chronically absent—well above the district average of 30.7% and far higher than Kinard Core Knowledge Middle School's 14.6%. Only Lincoln Middle School is higher, at 51.8%. Absenteeism is closely tied to learning, and Blevins' low-income students in particular have seen a sharp decline: that subgroup ranked in the 6th percentile statewide in 2025-26, down from the 27th percentile two years earlier. This is especially striking because Blevins has the lowest student-teacher ratio in the area at 12.6—even lower than Lesher Middle School (18.2) and Kinard (18.8)—yet it trails those schools by wide margins in ELA and math proficiency.

There are some bright spots. Eighth grade math proficiency was 42% in 2025-26, above the state average of 37.8%, and 8th grade science was above state averages for three consecutive years. Regionally, Blevins sits in the middle of the northern Colorado pack, ranking above Windsor Middle School, Lucile Erwin Middle School, and Bill Reed Middle School. For parents, the essential takeaway is that Blevins is a small school with stable rankings and real capacity for improvement; tackling the 43% absenteeism rate is likely the most important step toward helping all students—especially the most vulnerable—keep pace with the high-performing schools around it.
