Who it serves

The measures behind the comparison
Bars: this school (the area around it for education). Black tick: average of Colorado elementary schools.
Adults 25–44 with a bachelor’s+55%Free/reduced-price lunch17%English learners5%Students with IEPs21%

Neighborhood family income (families with children near the school, NCES): 7.5× the poverty line. Enrollment (K–12): 395. Education is for adults aged 25–44 — the ages most likely to be parents — because the Census doesn’t publish parents’ education below the district level.
