Elementary Schools in Mora

The two elementary schools located in Mora, New Mexico, Mora Elementary and Holman Elementary, face significant academic and socioeconomic challenges. While Mora Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, both schools serve student populations with high levels of economic disadvantage, as indicated by their 100% free and reduced lunch rates.

Mora Elementary is ranked 311 out of 433 New Mexico elementary schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (33%), Mathematics (14%), and Science (20%) are all below the state averages. Despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.3 to 1, the school has struggled to improve its academic performance, maintaining a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years.

In contrast, Holman Elementary serves a smaller student population of only 47 pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students. While it also has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, Holman Elementary boasts an even lower student-teacher ratio of 7.2 to 1, which may provide opportunities for more personalized instruction and support. However, the overall data suggests that the elementary schools in Mora require targeted interventions and additional resources to address the unique challenges faced by their students.
