Summary

Heath Middle School serves roughly 499 students in grades 6–8 in Greeley, CO, as part of Greeley School District No. 6, and it has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing middle schools in Colorado. In 2025–2026, Heath Middle School ranked 437th out of 469 Colorado middle schools, placing it in the 7th percentile with a 0-star rating. Over the past decade, the school's percentile has never risen above the 13th percentile, and proficiency rates remain far below both district and state averages.

In 2025–2026 CMAS testing, only 17.3% of Heath students were proficient in English Language Arts, compared with 28.1% across the district and 44.7% statewide. Math proficiency was 12.3% (district 20.7%, state 37.3%), and 8th-grade science proficiency was 9.9% (district 20.1%, state 35.4%). These results put Heath behind every nearby school in the comparison group. Just 7.7 miles away, Eaton Middle School posts 42.1% ELA and 36.6% math proficiency, while Windsor Charter Academy Middle School reaches 62.9% ELA and 53.1% math proficiency. Even within the same district, Brentwood Middle School outperforms Heath by roughly 12 points in ELA and 9 points in math.

One of the most urgent challenges at Heath is chronic absenteeism, which reached 43.7% in 2024–2025 — more than 15 points above the state average of 28.4%. By comparison, Brentwood's rate was 32.4% and Eaton's was 12.8%. Heath serves a high-poverty population, with 80.4% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch, but poverty alone does not tell the whole story: Franklin Middle School has an even higher poverty rate (87.7%) yet posts better test scores. This suggests that improvement is possible, and reducing chronic absenteeism may be the most important lever for helping Heath students succeed.
