Santa Fe

Summary:

The Santa Fe school district in New Mexico encompasses 28 schools, including 19 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with some schools like El Dorado Community School, Wood-Gormley Elementary, and Acequia Madre Elementary consistently ranking among the top performers in the state, while others struggle with much lower proficiency rates.

The high-performing schools tend to be located in more affluent areas of Santa Fe, while schools with very high rates of students in poverty, such as El Camino Real Academy Community, Ramirez Thomas Elementary, and Cesar Chavez Elementary, struggle with much lower proficiency rates. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds.

The data also shows that charter and magnet schools like Academy for Technology & Classics and Mandela International Magnet (Mims) are able to achieve strong academic outcomes, suggesting that innovative school models may be an effective strategy for improving education in the Santa Fe area.
