Summary:
The city of Cuba, New Mexico is home to 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The schools in this area face significant challenges, with consistently low performance and high poverty levels among the student population.
The standout school in the data is Tse Yi Gai High School, which is ranked 132 out of 190 New Mexico high schools and has the highest 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Tse Yi Gai High also has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 4.8, indicating smaller class sizes, and outperforms the Gallup district and state averages in English Language Arts and Science proficiency. In contrast, the Cuba school district, which includes Cuba Elementary, Cuba High, and Cuba Middle, is ranked 116 out of 119 districts in New Mexico and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
The data also reveals that all schools in the area serve a predominantly low-income student population, with free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 97.06% to 100%. This high poverty level likely contributes to the overall low performance of the schools in the region. Additionally, the small school sizes, ranging from 53 students at Tse Yi Gai High to 311 students at Cuba Elementary, may limit the availability of resources and extracurricular opportunities for students.
