West Grand Elementary and Middle School

Summary:

West Grand Elementary and Middle School is a public school serving 279 students in grades K-8 in Kremmling, Colorado. The school has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on standardized tests, with proficiency rates significantly lower than the state in subjects like science, English language arts, and math. Additionally, the school serves a population with a higher level of economic disadvantage, with 30-32% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite the school's academic challenges, it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.2 to 12 students per teacher over the past three school years. However, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined, from 448 out of 914 Colorado elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 671 out of 943 in the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the school's performance has not kept pace with other schools in the state.

Unfortunately, the data provided does not include information about any nearby schools that could be used for comparison. Without this context, it is difficult to determine how West Grand Elementary and Middle School's performance and characteristics compare to other schools in the surrounding area. The school is part of the West Grand School District No. 1.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
