Summary:

ZIP code 80922 in Colorado Springs is served by 8 schools within El Paso County Colorado School District 49, comprising 1 high school (Sand Creek High School) and 7 elementary schools—including one K-8 school—with no standalone middle schools and roughly 4,835 total students. The district overall earns 4 stars and ranks 33rd out of 115 Colorado districts, but school performance within this ZIP ranges from the 69th percentile to the 2nd percentile, meaning outcomes vary widely even within a small area.

For parents, the standout option is Remington Elementary School, which leads the ZIP in math (55.1% proficient) and also tops 54% in ELA. Springs Ranch Elementary School and Stetson Elementary School are also strong choices, both ranking near the 67th percentile with solid proficiency and moderate chronic absenteeism (20% and 26.5%, respectively). Sand Creek High School boasts an impressive 92% graduation rate and a 1.4% dropout rate, yet only 15% of students are proficient in SAT math and 48.7% are chronically absent. Allies appears to serve a specialized, high-need population with very low test scores (5.7% math) but remarkably low absenteeism (7.3%). James Irwin Elementary School shows an unusual profile: 50% ELA proficiency but just 11.8% math.

Across the board, math is the weakest subject—only Remington exceeds state averages in math. Rocky Mountain Classical Academy, despite having the lowest poverty rate (20.7%), sees math proficiency collapse from 35.2% in 5th grade to around 14–15% in 6th and 7th grades. Odyssey Elementary School, with the highest free/reduced lunch rate (62.2%), posts below-average scores but still outperforms Allies. Notably, socioeconomic status doesn't tell the whole story: Remington achieves top math scores with 44.4% free/reduced lunch, while Rocky Mountain Classical Academy lags despite more affluence. With no standalone middle school in the ZIP, families should look carefully at individual school performance, especially in math, when making enrollment decisions.
