Colorado Springs School District No. 11


Summary:

The Colorado Springs School District No. 11 is home to 57 schools, including 36 elementary schools, 9 middle schools, 11 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district serves a diverse student population across the Colorado Springs area. While academic performance varies widely across the district, several standout schools emerge as top performers, including Chipeta Elementary School, Stratton Elementary School, Odyssey Early College and Career Options, and CIVA Charter Academy.

The data reveals stark performance gaps between the highest and lowest performing schools in the district. For example, on the 5th grade CMAS Science exam, proficiency rates range from 76.7% at Steele Elementary to just 5.2% at Wilson Elementary. There also appears to be a strong correlation between a school's socioeconomic status, as measured by free and reduced lunch rates, and its academic performance, with the highest performing schools tending to have lower poverty rates.

Despite the overall challenges, the data highlights several bright spots in the Colorado Springs School District No. 11, including the high-performing charter and magnet schools that are bucking the trend of lower performance at high-poverty schools. Addressing socioeconomic and racial disparities will be crucial to improving outcomes across the district and ensuring all students have access to a quality education.
