School Overview

Vilas Undivided High School is a small, rural public school located in the town of Vilas, Colorado. Serving the local community, the school operates as part of the Vilas School District RE-5, which is characterized by its close-knit, small-town atmosphere. Because of its remote location in southeastern Colorado, the school plays a central role in the lives of its students and residents, focusing on providing a personalized educational experience that is typical of rural districts with lower student-to-teacher ratios.

The school is dedicated to preparing its students for life after graduation, whether that involves transitioning into the workforce or pursuing higher education. As indicated by its official website, the institution emphasizes community involvement and maintains a commitment to academic standards despite the challenges associated with serving a smaller, geographically isolated student population. It serves as an essential hub for education, athletics, and social development for the youth within the Vilas area.

¹ National School Lunch Program (NSLP): The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to eligible children each school day based on household income thresholds or community eligibility options (CEO).
