Summary:
The 80530 zip code area is home to two schools, both part of the St. Vrain Valley School District No. Re1J, which is ranked 30th out of 115 school districts in Colorado and has a 4-star rating. The schools include Thunder Valley Pk-8, an elementary school serving grades PK-8 with 832 students, and Spark! Discovery Preschool, a preschool with 293 students.
While the district as a whole is performing well, Thunder Valley Pk-8 appears to be struggling academically, with significantly lower Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the district and state averages. This disparity in academic performance could be influenced by the school's higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 57.21% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Spark! Discovery Preschool has a lower percentage of free or reduced-price lunch recipients at 26.28%.
The presence of Spark! Discovery Preschool provides early childhood education opportunities for the community, but the lack of available CMAS data makes it difficult to assess its academic performance and effectiveness. Overall, the analysis of the school data in the 80530 zip code area suggests that while the district is performing well, there are significant challenges at Thunder Valley Pk-8 that warrant further investigation and support.
