The 80305 zip code area of Boulder, Colorado is home to 7 high-performing schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, all part of the Boulder Valley School District No. Re2. This district is ranked 8th out of 115 in Colorado and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Several schools stand out as top performers in the area. Fairview High School is ranked 6th out of 328 Colorado high schools, with exceptional test scores and a high 4-year graduation rate of 84.2%. The middle schools, Southern Hills Middle School and Summit Middle Charter School, are ranked 10th and 5th out of 469 Colorado middle schools, respectively, and both have 5-star ratings.

While the schools in the 80305 zip code area generally perform well, with several standout institutions, there is one area of concern: high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, ranging from 27.7% to 29.08%. This is an issue that warrants further investigation and action by the district. Additionally, the significant variation in free/reduced lunch rates, from 7.51% at Southern Hills Middle School to 29.08% at Creekside Elementary School at Martin Park, indicates that the schools serve a diverse population in terms of socioeconomic status.
