What Parents Should Know

Test scores at Littleton High School sit below average, but its growth scores are strong: students here make above-average progress year over year. The raw numbers haven't caught up, but a school that keeps moving kids forward is doing the harder, more important work.

At 8.2:1 students to teachers, Littleton High School sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.

Littleton High School sits in a rural area, which can mean longer drives for some families. Rural schools are often community anchors with smaller classes, but check transportation, after-school options, and access to specialized services before you commit.
