Summary:
The 80605 zip code area is home to a single public elementary school, Glacier Peak Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-5. While the school has a diverse student population, it has consistently underperformed academically compared to district and state averages, with below-average proficiency rates in science, English language arts, and mathematics.
Glacier Peak Elementary School's academic challenges are compounded by the fact that it serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 40.38% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's struggles, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address the needs of its student body. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 600 out of 710 Colorado elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 527 out of 933 in 2022-2023, indicating that it is falling behind other schools in the state.
Despite the challenges faced by Glacier Peak Elementary School, the data suggests that there may be opportunities for the school to focus on improving instructional practices, curriculum alignment, and targeted interventions to support student learning and academic achievement. Collaboration with the Adams 12 Five Star Schools district may be crucial in identifying and implementing effective strategies to address the school's needs and help its students succeed.
