PSD Academic Excellence

PSD’s four learning goals prepare students for the future including:

  • 3rd grade reading proficiency
  • Annual academic growth
  • More students post-secondary ready
  • Successful transitions for all students.

Students perform 3-19% higher than students statewide in all subjects and in all 27 areas of the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP) tests, and consistently perform higher than students state and nationwide on ACT and SAT college entrance exams.

  • More than 70% of graduates enroll in a college or university immediately after graduation, and 82% enroll within 3 years, compared to 58% statewide.
  • The PSD Delivering the Promise summarizes great accomplishments for 2009 and includes a district profile.
