Summary:
The 80218 zip code area in Colorado is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. While the schools in this area vary in their academic performance, one standout is Morey Middle School, which has consistently ranked among the top middle schools in Colorado.
Morey Middle School boasts a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and impressive proficiency rates in CMAS English Language Arts (79.2%) and CMAS Math (69.7%) across all grades. In contrast, the other schools in the data set, such as Dora Moore Ece-8 School and the two high schools, Denver Center for 21st-Century Learning at Wyman and Denver School of Innovation and Sustainable Design, have relatively lower performance, with proficiency rates well below the state and district averages.
The data also reveals significant disparities in student demographics and socioeconomic factors across the schools. Dora Moore Ece-8 School and Denver Center for 21st-Century Learning at Wyman serve a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates exceeding 60%. These schools also have more diverse student populations, while School District No. 1 as a whole has a majority white student body. The varying student-teacher ratios across the schools suggest that class size and teacher-student interactions may also play a role in the schools' performance.
