Poudre School District students continue to excel, with the latest state and national assessment results showing they consistently outperform their peers across Colorado.
On the Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS), PSD students outpaced the state by 12 to 21 percentage points across all tested subjects. Results also revealed steady gains in reading, writing, and math at the elementary and middle school levels, along with science score improvements in every tested grade. Growth was especially notable in elementary schools, where English learners and other student groups exceeded state averages in math progress.
High school students also showed strong outcomes on the PSAT and SAT. PSD students scored 14 to 20 percentage points higher than state averages in meeting college readiness benchmarks. Scores rose in both reading and math, with minority students surpassing statewide results in key growth areas.
“These results highlight the incredible commitment of our educators, staff, students, and families working together,” said PSD Superintendent Brian Kingsley. “We know test scores are just one measure of success, but they reflect the exceptional teaching and learning happening across our district.”
The District wants to congratulate all the hard work of the thousands of students who give it their all in and out of the classroom.
