BARONE MIDDLE SCHOOL

BARONE MIDDLE SCHOOL is a public middle school that is part of the Meeker School District Re1 school district, located in MEEKER, CO with about 174 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 8th Grade. With about 10 teachers, BARONE MIDDLE SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. 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.

BARONE MIDDLE SCHOOL is located in Meeker, Colorado, a small, close-knit rural community in Rio Blanco County. As the primary middle-level institution in the Meeker School District (RE-1), the school typically serves students in grades 6 through 8. Because of its location in a remote, mountainous region, the school often benefits from a strong sense of community support and a focus on personalized education, where educators aim to foster close relationships with their students to help them transition successfully from elementary school to high school.

The school is dedicated to providing a balanced curriculum that emphasizes core academic subjects alongside opportunities for social and emotional development. Given its setting in Meeker, the school often integrates the values of the surrounding ranching and outdoor-oriented culture into its programming. BARONE MIDDLE SCHOOL strives to prepare its students for the academic rigor of Meeker High School while promoting extracurricular involvement, athletics, and community engagement to ensure students are well-rounded, contributing members of their town.
