Fort Logan Northgate

Public Grades 4-8

Summary

Fort Logan Northgate is a public school in Denver, CO, serving 338 students in grades 3–8 within the Sheridan School District No. 2, a high-poverty community where 85.8% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. Its grade span is broader than the typical 6–8 middle school, and because the district is small, the school's test scores essentially represent the entire district's performance at these grade levels.

Academically, Fort Logan is among the lowest-performing schools in Colorado. In 2023–2024, it ranked 463rd out of 485 middle schools (5th percentile) with a 0-star rating. In 2024–2025, just 10.4% of students scored proficient in ELA and only 4.9% in math—compared to state averages of 44.8% and 35.9%, respectively. Nearby Littleton's Euclid Middle School posted ELA proficiency of 62.7% and math proficiency of 46.3%. Strikingly, however, chronic absenteeism at Fort Logan is 24.6%, better than the state average of 28.4% and far better than nearby DPS schools like Compass Academy (66.7%). This suggests students are showing up regularly, yet instruction is not translating into grade-level proficiency.

The school's trajectory has declined from a 1-star rating (21st percentile) in 2017–2018 to its current 0-star status. With a student-teacher ratio of 16.9, class sizes are among the largest in the area. While the school reports a 0% dropout rate, its district's dropout rate (2.9%) is nearly double the state average (1.6%), meaning students may face additional challenges after transitioning to high school. Just miles away, schools like Euclid and Goddard Middle School demonstrate dramatically different outcomes, highlighting the deep opportunity divides across the Denver metro area.

This school is absolutely atrocious, from the administration to faculty all the way downward...would not send my child here to learn unless coerced into doing it. Close Quote
