Each year, Colorado evaluates schools using achievement and growth data from CMAS, SAT scores, dropout rates, and graduation rates. Schools receive scores (1-100) on the School Performance Framework (SPF) based on Achievement, Growth, Growth Gaps, and Post-secondary Readiness. In 2023, Polaris achieved "Performance" status with a score of 76.2. Polaris, considered a single K-12 school, receives one SPF report for all grades.
The District also shares info that gives an idea of personal interactions at school. Our 2021 Connections Survey reflects how students in grades 4-12 feel about their connections with adults, peers, and interests.
Families often ask about our students' college readiness. While we can’t access alumni college data, FRCC provides data, showing Polaris students excelling, completing 572 College Credits in the 2017-2018 school year.
