Desert Star Elementary

Summary:

Desert Star Elementary is a public elementary school located in Alamogordo, New Mexico, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 464 students. The school is part of the Alamogordo school district, which is ranked 43 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Alamogordo district, Desert Star Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the district and the state of New Mexico in standardized test scores across all subjects and grade levels. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 31% of Desert Star students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, 12% in Mathematics, and 28% in Science, compared to the Alamogordo district scores of 45%, 27%, and 49%, respectively, and the state scores of 39%, 25%, and 36%. The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 140 out of 396 elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 323 out of 433 in 2023-2024. Additionally, Desert Star struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population, with many subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of the state.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Alamogordo district, such as Holloman Elementary, Buena Vista Elementary, and Sierra Elementary, consistently outperform Desert Star Elementary in academic achievement, with significantly higher proficiency rates. In contrast, High Rolls Mountain Park Elementary, a small school located 7.67 miles from Desert Star, stands out as an exceptional performer, consistently ranking in the top 5-21 of New Mexico elementary schools over the past decade, suggesting that factors beyond just demographics and school size can contribute to student success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
