Summary:

The 81324 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Seventh Street Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. This school faces significant challenges, including low academic performance, high poverty rates, and a lack of diversity among its student population.

Seventh Street Elementary School has an enrollment of 124 students, the majority of whom are White (91.13%). The school's academic performance is concerning, with only 20% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better in English Language Arts and 15% in Math, well below the state averages. Additionally, over 56% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. The school's student-teacher ratio of 13.1 to 1 is relatively low, but this has not translated into stronger academic outcomes.

Despite the challenges faced by Seventh Street Elementary, the Dolores County School District Re-2j, which the school is a part of, is ranked 31 out of 116 districts in Colorado and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the district may have the resources and support to help improve the performance of Seventh Street Elementary, but significant work will be needed to address the school's academic, poverty, and diversity issues.
