Best Public Schools in T Or C, NM

Summary:

The city of T Or C, New Mexico is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools in this district face significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance across the board compared to state averages.

The standout schools in the area are Hot Springs High School, which has a relatively higher 4-year graduation rate of 76.7%, and Sierra Elementary School, which outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts proficiency. However, the T Or C school district as a whole struggles, with all schools ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state and receiving low 1- or 2-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

The district-wide proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly below the state averages, at 30% and 19% respectively, compared to the state averages of 39% and 25%. Additionally, all schools in the district have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the community. While the student-teacher ratios are generally within the recommended range, the consistent low performance across the district suggests systemic challenges that need to be addressed to improve educational outcomes for students in T Or C.
