Summary:
Nine schools serve ZIP code 82633: seven elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, with 1,639 students in total, within Converse County School District #1. The reported test results show a varied picture rather than one area-wide pattern: Douglas High School is above state results in every reported subject and grade, while elementary results are often below state levels. The most important takeaway is that performance changes notably by grade and subject, with a particularly strong seventh-grade ELA result at Douglas Middle School.
Douglas High School has the most consistently strong profile: its five reported results are 5.0 to 13.8 percentage points above state results, led by ninth-grade math at 60.3% versus 46.5%. Douglas Middle School stands out in seventh-grade ELA, where 79.4% were proficient, 22.9 points above the state; its sixth- and eighth-grade ELA results, however, were 6.8 and 4.3 points below state results. The greatest elementary shortfalls include third-grade ELA at Douglas Intermediate School, 7.9 points below the state, and fifth-grade math at Douglas Upper Elementary School, 7.8 points below. Upper Elementary’s fourth-grade science result was a bright spot, 1.5 points above the state.
Results shifted in different directions over the two years: Douglas Intermediate School’s third-grade ELA fell 6.8 points, while Douglas Upper Elementary School’s fifth-grade math rose 11.4 points but remained below the state. At Douglas High School, SchoolDigger’s ranking improved from 32nd of 80 schools in 2023–24 to 22nd of 81 in 2025–26; Douglas Middle School moved from 28th of 74 to 41st of 76, while Douglas Upper Elementary School shifted from 111th of 147 to 108th of 148. Among schools with reported figures, free/reduced-lunch eligibility ranged from 33.9% at High School to 48.2% at Upper Elementary; these are context, not explanations for results. Scores are suppressed for several small schools, so their performance cannot be compared here.
