Summary:

The 80026 zip code area in Colorado is home to 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school, all part of the highly-ranked Boulder Valley School District No. Re2. While the schools in this area show a wide range of academic performance, a few stand out as exceptional.

Peak to Peak Charter School, an alternative school, has very high test scores, with students significantly outperforming the district and state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels. Centaurus High School and Lafayette Elementary School also demonstrate strong academic performance, with students scoring above the district and state averages on many tests.

However, not all schools in the 80026 zip code area are performing at the same level. Alicia Sanchez International School lags behind in test scores, while Justice High Charter School, an alternative school, has the lowest academic performance among the high schools, despite maintaining a relatively high graduation rate and low dropout rate. Chronic absenteeism is a concern across all the schools, ranging from 27.7% to 27.7%, which could be an area for the district to focus on improving.
