Fremont Re-3

Located at 0345 County Road 12 in Cotopaxi, Colorado, Fremont Re-3 is an active, traditional public school district set within the remote rural landscape of the broader Cañon City region. Serving local families across two operational school facilities, the district offers a continuous learning pathway spanning pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Operating independently as a non-charter district, Fremont Re-3 fosters an intimate academic environment for its student body of 155 enrolled children—comprising 80 male and 75 female students—ensuring strong community connections from early childhood education to high school graduation.

The district's small scale allows for exceptional individual attention, supported by a comprehensive team of approximately 85 full-time equivalent staff members. This includes nearly 32.5 dedicated teachers, 11.6 instructional aides, and over 41 support personnel, resulting in an extraordinarily low student-to-teacher ratio that encourages customized instructional approaches. Educating a student population that includes 134 White, 14 Hispanic, 6 multiracial, and American Indian learners, the district prioritizes supportive, personalized growth for every child.
