CO SAT: represent outcomes for designated subjects and student groups; participation rates count parent excusals as non-participants. For the 1-year report, calculations are based on 2025 state assessment results. Multi-year reports include 2023-2025 results. Cut-scores for the multi-year reports were re-normed based on 2025 results. Dropout Rates: represent percentages of students enrolled in grades 7-12 for districts and 9-12 for schools at any time during the year who left and did not subsequently enroll in another Colorado school. 1-Year calculations are based on the 2024 End of Year (EOY) data submission. Multi-year reports include 2022 through 2024 records. Matriculation Rates: represent percentages of high school graduates with a qualifying credential, enrollment, or enlistment status in a Career & Technical Education (CTE) program, a 2- or 4-year institute of higher education, a branch of the military, or a postsecondary program. Beginning in 2024, high school graduates who were enrolled in ASCENT, P-TECH, or TREP programs (i.e., Postsecondary Program) during their 5th year of high school count as successes. 1-Year calculations are based on the 2024 graduation cohort. Multi-year reports include 2022 through 2024 records. Graduation Rates: represent percentages of students graduating high school within designated timeframes. Ratings are based on the best of the 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-year graduation rates. AYGs designate Anticipated Years of Graduation, which are defined as four years after the year that students initially enroll in 9th grade. Calculations for 1-Year and Multi-Year reports are based on data for students with AYGs between 2021 and 2024. For additional information about ratings, refer to the scoring guide on the last page of this report.

NORTHERN COLORADO Larimer County
LARIMER COUNTY: Larimer County’s 2026 population is estimated at 380,384, reflecting a 0.82% growth rate over the past year (World Population Review estimate based on U.S. Census Bureau data). Larimer County is the 8th largest county in Colorado. The 2010 population was 300,453 and has grown 26.6% since 2010. Larimer County comprises the Fort Collins, CO Metropolitan Statistical Area. The county is located at the northern end of the Front Range, at the edge of the Colorado Eastern Plains along the border with Wyoming.
HISTORY
Larimer County was created in 1861, and was named after General William Larimer. Unlike that of much of Colorado, which was founded on the mining of gold and silver, the settlement of Larimer County was based almost entirely on agriculture, an industry that few thought possible in the region during the initial days of the Colorado Gold Rush. The mining boom almost entirely passed the county by. It would take the introduction of irrigation to the region in the 1860s to bring the first widespread settlement to the area.
GEOGRAPHY
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 2,634 square miles (6,820 km2), of which 2,596 square miles (6,720 km2) is land and 38 square miles (98 km2) (1.4%) is water.

Planning to sell. A homeowner’s checklist to prepare your home.
So you’re planning to sell your home. You and your real estate broker have decided on a price, based on current market values, but your home may sell faster and bring a higher price if it shows well. Potential buyers will get the best impression if your home is clean, neat, uncluttered, in good repair, light, airy, fragrant, and quiet. This checklist will help you get your home ready to show. Clean everything in you home.
Unclutter your home before you show it.
Cleanliness signals to a buyer that the home has been well cared for and is most likely in good repair. A messy or dirty home will cause prospective buyers to notice every flaw.
Have a garage sale. Empty closets. Throw away what you can’t sell. The less “stuff” in and around a home, the roomier it will seem.
Let the fresh air in. Get rid of odors that may be unfamiliar or unpleasant. People are most often offended by odors from tobacco, pets, cooking, and musty or sour laundry. Fresh flowers and potpourri can be used to your advantage. Other smells that attract positive attention include fresh baked bread and cinnamon.
Fix anything that is broken. This includes plumbing, electrical systems, switches, windows, TV antennas, screens, doors, and fences; if it can’t be fixed, replace it or get rid of it (no window screens are better than broken ones). A buyer will make a much lower offer if your house is in disrepair and will probably still insist that everything be fixed before taking occupancy. You’re better off if you leave potential buyers no reason to offer less than you are asking.
Painting your home. There’s nothing that improves the value of a home for a lower cost than a fresh coat of paint. And it’s so often easier to paint a room than it is to scrub it. Stick with neutral colors - off-white is the safest. Be sure to avoid black, violet, and pink.
Keep the noise down. Silence is a restful sound that offends no one. Turn off the TV and radio. Soft instrumental music is fine but avoid vocals. If necessary, close the windows to eliminate any street noise.
8
Send your pets away. Send them away or secure them away from the house when prospective buyers are coming. You never know if people will be annoyed or intimidated by your pets or even allergic to them. And you never want a prospective buyer to have to avoid animal droppings.
Send the kids to Grandma’s. Send them to Grandma’s or take them on a walk around the block. Children can be noisy and distracting to someone interested in looking at a home.

The Closing Process We know the home buying process can be confusing. Let’s walk through a brief explanation of what happens after you sign the contract. he signed contract and earnest money are delivered to the settlement agent (note: the title company often acts as T the settlement agent). Now the title order begins and information such as taxes, loan payoffs, lien search, and other information is collected. he title search will determine the legal owner of the property and any outstanding liens and/or assessments. T This search is critical to making sure the property will transfer legally to the buyer. Over the next few weeks the following will occur: inspections, repairs (if necessary), payoffs obtained from current lenders, HOA’s, lienholders, ect, and loan document preparation. It is important the buyers and sellers are responsive to requests for paperwork and information. Once the invoices, payoffs, statements, and loan documents are received, the settlement statement is prepared. This document includes the closing calculations and is used to inform the buyer and seller of their bottom line figures. The closing paperwork must then be signed by the buyer and the seller. This will include documents such as the deed, settlement statement, loan documents (if applicable), and others. ll payees, including the seller, payoff lenders, real estate professionals, and others are paid according to the A settlement statement. The final documents, including the deed and loan instrument, are sent to the county recorder’s office for recordation. After recording, the deed will be sent to the buyer. The title insurance policy is sent to the buyer and the lender.

Understanding title insurance. The title industry and title insurance in brief.
Prior to the development of the title industry in the late 1800s, a home-buyer received a grantor’s warranty, attorney’s title opinion, or abstractor’s certificate as assurance of home ownership. The buyer relied on the financial integrity of the grantor, attorney, or abstractor for protection. Today, homebuyers look primarily to title insurance to provide this protection. Title insurance companies are regulated by state statute. They are required to post financial guarantees to ensure that any claims will be paid in a timely fashion. They also must maintain their own “title plants” which house duplicates of recorded deeds, mortgages, plats, and other pertinent county property records.
What is title insurance? Title insurance provides coverage for certain losses due to defects in the title that, for the most part, occurred prior to your ownership. Title insurance protects against defects such as prior fraud or forgery that might go undetected until after closing and possibly jeopardize your ownership and investment.
Why is title insurance needed? Title insurance insures buyers against the risk that they did not acquire marketable title from the seller. It is primarily designed to reduce risk or loss caused by defects in title from the past. A loan policy of title insurance protects the interest of the mortgage lender, while an owner’s policy protects the equity of you, the buyer, for as long as you or your heirs (in certain policies) own the real property.
When is the premium due? You pay for your owner’s title insurance policy only once, at the close of escrow. Who pays for the owner’s policy and loan policy varies depending on local customs.

How title insurance differs. Unlike other forms of insurance, title insurance emphasizes loss prevention for the insured. Title professionals perform labor-intensive work to find and address title issues that could threaten your homeownership. This upfront analysis gives you, as a policy holder, the peace of mind that your title risk has been effectively reduced. In contrast, insurance based on loss assumption (such as auto or property and casualty insurance) requires little upfront work because claims cannot be predicted or prevented, and premium funds are needed only in the event of an accident or other covered issue. These types of insurance also require annual coverage payments, unlike title insurance which is paid for only once upon the purchase of your home or establishment of a new mortgage.
The importance of title protection. There are many title issues that could cause you to lose your real property or your mortgage investment. Even the most careful search of public records may not disclose the most dangerous threat: hidden risks. These issues may not be uncovered until years later. Without title insurance from a reputable and financially solvent company, the ownership of your home could be jeopardized.
Here are some examples of title issues that may occur: eeds by persons supposedly single, D but secretly married. Deeds in lieu of foreclosure given under duress arital rights of spouse purportedly, but not M legally, divorced. Impersonation of the true owner of the land. Deeds by minors. Deeds by persons of unsound mind. Deeds to or from defunct corporations. Defective acknowledgments by notaries. Duress in execution of instruments. Erroneous reports furnished by tax officials. Forged deeds, releases, etc. Mistakes in recording legal documents. Surviving children omitted from will. dministration of estate of persons absent but A not deceased. Birth or adoption of children after date of will. laims of creditors against real property sold by heirs C or devisees. eed of community property recited to be D separate property. Deeds by foreign parties.

Seller’s Checklist
Prior to Closing: Provide title company with current loan information so a payoff statement can be ordered from your lender. You will need to provide your Social Security Number and you may be required to sign a form authorizing your lender to provide the payoff to First American Title. Complete a Confidential Information Statement if you have a common surname. Provide documentation of any change in marital status (divorce, marriage, death) during current ownership. If the property is inherited we will need a copy of the probated will. Have your Power of Attorney approved prior to closing in the event you will not be present to sign documents. Required at Closing: Driver’s License
Social Security Number
ring extra house keys, garage door openers, warranties or operational manuals for appliances (heating, AC, stove, etc.) B or let your real estate professional know where in the house they are located. Avoiding Closing Delays: Lenders and title insurers may require single owners who have married to have their spouse sign paperwork or a deed at closing. Discuss this with your escrow officer early in the transaction. The Confidential Information Statement should be completed and returned promptly. It will help clarify the identity of the actual person or persons named on judgments in the title search. After Closing: Cancel your homeowner’s insurance if you are moving from the property at closing. If you are remaining at the property after closing, you should notify your agent of this change. Make sure your lender has your forwarding address. The lender will refund monies left in your escrow/impound account and send final paperwork regarding the paid loan. Keep your final settlement statement with tax documents. You will need it when filing taxes.
