Summary

Hoehne Schools is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Trinidad, Colorado, with 293 students. While the school has a relatively low dropout rate, it faces some significant challenges, particularly in the areas of academic achievement and chronic absenteeism.

Hoehne Schools consistently underperforms the state and Hoehne Reorganized School District No. 3 averages on standardized tests across subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school had only 32.5% proficiency in CMAS English Language Arts compared to the state average of 44.8%, and 35% proficiency in CMAS Math compared to the state's 35.9%. Additionally, Hoehne Schools has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 22-28% in recent years, which is significantly above the state average. This could be a contributing factor to the school's lower test scores.

Hoehne Schools also serves a relatively high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, around 40-44% in recent years, suggesting the school serves a more economically disadvantaged population compared to the state. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16.9-17.9 in recent years is slightly higher than the typical ratio in Colorado schools. While there are no other schools within 20 miles of Hoehne Schools, further analysis of the school's specific programs, curriculum, and support services could provide insights into how it is meeting the needs of its unique student population.
