Special education in Colorado
Students with IEPs in Colorado, where they spend the school day, and all 273 administrative units and districts, from 2024–25 federal data.
- 111,407school-age students with IEPs1.5% of the national total
- 12.9%of enrolled students have an IEP2.5 points below the nation (15.3%) · 47th of 51
- 80.9%in general education 80% or more of the day13.1 points above the nation (67.9%) · 5th of 51
- 4.6%in general education less than 40% of the day8.5 points below the nation (13.0%) · 49th of 51
- 69administrative units and districts reporting a countNone withheld for privacy
Colorado reports IDEA counts by administrative unit (school districts and boards of cooperative educational services), not always by school district, so many Colorado districts have no IEP figures of their own, and its identification rate uses statewide totals.

How these figures are built
Both parts. Rates use only the districts that reported both parts of the fraction. A district missing either part is left out of that rate, never counted as zero.
Not published. Not published means the publisher suppressed the figure to protect student privacy, did not report it, or the count is fewer than 10 students. It is never zero.
