Summary:
Zip code 80446 is served by a single public high school, Middle Park High School (grades 9–12) in Granby, Colorado, which enrolls 413 students within the East Grand School District No. 2. Since there is only one high school in this area, the focus is on how Middle Park performs relative to state averages and its own recent trends.
Middle Park is a mid-tier Colorado high school, consistently ranking around the 55th percentile statewide and earning 3 out of 5 stars. It stands out for a very strong graduation rate (94.6% vs. 85.6% statewide), a low dropout rate (1.3% vs. 1.6%), and notable excellence in 11th-grade science, with 37.3% proficient on the CMAS exam compared to just 24.8% statewide. Early high school math is also a plus, especially in 10th grade, where PSAT10 math proficiency jumped to 44% versus 39% statewide. However, the school struggles with very high chronic absenteeism (42.4% vs. 28.4% statewide) and weak 11th-grade SAT math performance (19% proficient vs. 32% statewide).
Year-to-year test scores show large swings, likely due to small cohorts—10th-grade math proficiency rose 18 points in one year, while 11th-grade SAT math fell 10 points. Reading and writing scores are mixed: 9th graders exceed the state average (68% vs. 66%), but 11th graders fall behind (56% vs. 60%). With only 27.36% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a relatively economically advantaged population, making its high absenteeism and below-average SAT math scores more notable. The district itself ranks stronger (70th percentile, 4 stars) than the high school, suggesting the elementary and middle schools are performing well. For parents, the key takeaway is that Middle Park excels at graduating students and teaching science and early math, but chronic absenteeism and junior-year SAT performance are areas of concern to watch.
