PRIMERO JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL

PRIMERO JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL is a public high school that is part of the Primero Reorganized School District No. 2 school district, located in WESTON, CO with about 96 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 11 teachers, PRIMERO JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

PRIMERO JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL is a small, rural public school located in Weston, Colorado, situated along State Highway 12. As part of the Primero School District Re-2, the school serves a tight-knit community in Las Animas County. Its unique structure combines junior high and high school students into a single facility, fostering a close environment where students often benefit from smaller class sizes and more personalized instruction from faculty.

The school is deeply integrated into the local landscape, often serving as a central hub for the small unincorporated community of Weston. Because of its remote setting, the school places a strong emphasis on community engagement and provides essential academic and extracurricular opportunities for students who might otherwise be isolated by geography. By blending traditional curriculum with the challenges of a rural educational setting, PRIMERO JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL strives to prepare its students for both higher education and regional workforce needs.
