The Magdalena school district in New Mexico consists of three schools: Magdalena Elementary, Magdalena High, and Magdalena Middle. While the district as a whole faces challenges, with all three schools ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types statewide, Magdalena High stands out as the strongest performer in the district.
