Best Public Schools in Grady, NM

Summary:

The city of Grady, New Mexico is home to three schools: Grady Elementary, Grady High, and Grady Middle School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and are part of the Grady school district.

Based on the data, Grady Elementary and Grady Middle School stand out as the top-performing schools in the area. Both schools are ranked among the best in the state, with 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger. They consistently achieve high test scores, well above the state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science. In contrast, Grady High School has a more average performance, ranking 81st out of 170 high schools in the state with a 3-star rating.

The data also reveals that the Grady school district as a whole is performing very well, with all three schools ranked in the top tiers of their respective categories statewide. This suggests the district is effectively supporting its students and schools. However, the high free/reduced lunch rates, especially at Grady High and Grady Middle School, indicate a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may present unique challenges and opportunities for the schools to provide additional support and resources.
