Summary:
The 80498 zip code in Colorado is home to a single public elementary school, Silverthorne Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 342 students. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance on standardized tests lags significantly behind district and state averages, placing it in the bottom quarter of Colorado elementary schools in recent years.
Silverthorne Elementary School's test scores on the CMAS exams are well below the Summit School District No. Re 1 and state of Colorado averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 5th grade, only 24.1% of students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 32.8% in the district and 33.9% statewide. The school's performance in English Language Arts and Math is similarly low, with proficiency rates ranging from 11.6% to 32.7% in ELA and 8.5% to 16.4% in Math, while the district and state averages were significantly higher.
The high percentage of students (53.51%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Silverthorne Elementary School suggests a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance. However, the school's small student-teacher ratio of 11.6 could be leveraged to provide more individualized support and targeted interventions to help raise student achievement and improve the school's overall standing.
