Bloomfield

Blanco Elementary is the top-performing elementary school in the district, ranking 190 out of 433 New Mexico elementary schools and earning 3 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. It has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (38%) and Mathematics (32%) compared to the district and state averages.

While the district faces significant challenges, with most schools underperforming compared to state averages, particularly in Science and Mathematics, the data also highlights a few potential bright spots. Bloomfield High has the highest graduation rate (76.7%) among the Bloomfield high schools, and the overall Bloomfield district may be able to learn from the success of Blanco Elementary and Mesa Alta Junior High to improve student outcomes across the district.
