Summary

Sky View Middle School serves 565 students in grades 6–8 in Pueblo West, CO, and is part of Pueblo County School District 70. The school currently holds a 3-star rating and ranks in the 60th percentile of Colorado middle schools — a remarkable turnaround from a decade ago, when it sat in the 21st percentile. Today, Sky View is one of the stronger middle schools in its immediate region, ranking ahead of most nearby schools in both District 70 and Pueblo School District No. 60.

Academically, Sky View's biggest strength is 8th grade. Eighth graders score well above state averages in English, math, and especially science, where 43.8% are proficient compared to 35.4% statewide. That science result is far higher than many neighboring schools, including Liberty Point International School (18.6%) and Vineland Middle School (29.5%). Math proficiency has also climbed steadily over the past several years, from 27.5% to 34.3%. Sky View stands out for its strong outcomes with Hispanic and low-income students, who make up a significant share of the student body — 45.1% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch — with subgroup results ranking in the 69th to 83rd percentile statewide.

The main challenges are attendance and consistency across grade levels. Chronic absenteeism sits at 37.8%, nearly 10 points above the state average and much higher than top-performing peers like The Connect Charter School (13.3%). Seventh grade is also a notable dip, particularly in English, where proficiency falls below the state average. Given that 8th graders perform so well, the school may be able to apply those successful practices to earlier grades. If attendance improves, Sky View has clear potential to rise from solid mid-tier to one of the top middle schools in the Pueblo area.

Horrible school. This review is lengthy but I hope all parents will take time to review it. We have tried to work with the staff however all efforts were ignored or refused. Teachers are exceptionally rude. Front office staff is a joke. Once while picking up our student the secretary was painting her nails. One teacher is allowing students to buy grades by bringing in school supplies. When we voiced concern over this practice the local school board allows and endorsed it. She assigned a play for a science class with 2 days notice to provide a required costume in order for students to get full points. She assigned a project to create a website with student's photos without parent permission. Websites if not properly done can expose students to extreme danger on the web. Another teacher had to be threatened with sexual harassment charges to get him to stop using the term "BABY" to the students. The school also failed to complete required literacy testing for our students IEP and special education program and set appropriate goals. She was called out on dress code in front of other classmates. She was wearing shorts longer than her fingertips and the front office staff insisted she prove it. The handicap front door was non-functioning for over three months. The door didn't even have a motor on it. District stated it would be fixed April 24, 2015. It took an additional three weeks to get it fixed. The parent pick up area is a safety hazard. Parents are allowed to load in "no student loading" areas. The crossing guard allows parents to load students in the middle of traffic lanes. The school staff are public servants paid for by our tax dollars and should have to be accountable for our children's education and safety! We need to stand up and let them know that issues like this are not ok. This school year has been so bad we have removed her from this school and registered her at another school. Close Quote
