GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Gilpin County Undivided Highschool was the only school I had ever gone to. It is a great school because it offers preschool through 12th grade in one building and has a variety of after school activities such as football or theatre. When Covid came, it didn't take long for the school to come up with a plan to handle it, and they have been doing well with it ever since. Overall, Gilpin County is a pretty good school.

This school has failed not only my child but many of their students and will continue to do so until there is some type of reform! They might have 3 or 4 decent teachers. Sure wish I would have heeded the warning myself!
