A Monthly Note from Superintendent Scallon
January 30, 2026
Dear Weld RE-4 Families and Community,
I hope 2026 is off to a wonderful start. I am thrilled to share some exceptional news regarding our district’s recent performance.
Our official on-time graduation rate for the 2024 - 2025 school year reached 95.7%, our highest in recent history and more than 10 percentage points above the state average. Furthermore, our dropout rate has fallen to 0.3%, our lowest since 2018 and significantly below the state average of 1.6%.
These numbers represent more than just data; they represent the bright futures of our students. While our goal remains to ensure every single student crosses the finish line, I want to celebrate this significant progress in narrowing the gap. Thank you for your unwavering support and for believing in the potential of our learners.
As we move further into the semester, we are also entering peak competition season. Our clubs, activities, and athletics will soon be showcasing their talents across the state and nation. I invite you to join me in the stands to cheer them on; your "hometown support" truly makes a difference.
With Gratitude,
Michelle Scallon Superintendent
