Centennial School District No. R-1

Centennial School District No. R-1 is an active, traditional public school district headquartered at 14644 Highway 159 in San Luis, Colorado. Situated in a remote rural setting within the broader Alamosa regional area, the district operates a single comprehensive school facility serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade.

The district supports a close-knit student body of 186 children, consisting of 98 male and 88 female students, which allows for small class sizes and personalized instruction across all grade levels. Culturally rich and diverse, the student population is predominantly Hispanic (152 students), alongside White (33 students) and Black (1 student) learners. To ensure academic growth and operational excellence, Centennial School District maintains a robust professional workforce of approximately 87 full-time equivalent staff members. This dedicated team includes over 30 certified teachers, 13 instructional aides, and more than 43 support staff personnel, creating a well-resourced and supportive educational environment tailored to its rural community.
