Summary:
The small town of Mosquero, New Mexico is home to a single high school, Mosquero High, which serves grades 7-12. Despite its small size with just 48 students, Mosquero High is a standout school, ranking 24th out of 119 schools in the state and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Mosquero High's performance has been somewhat inconsistent in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 37th and 137th place. However, the school's students outperformed the state average in English Language Arts (44% proficient vs. 39% statewide) and Science (38% proficient vs. 36% statewide) in the 2023-2024 school year. Unfortunately, the school's math proficiency rates lagged behind the state average, with only 12% of students proficient compared to 24% statewide.
The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio of 8.9 are likely beneficial for providing personalized attention to students. However, over half (52.08%) of Mosquero High's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Continued focus on improving math instruction and supporting the unique needs of the school's economically disadvantaged students could be key areas for improvement for Mosquero High School.
