Bosque Farms Elementary

Summary:

Bosque Farms Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the town of Los Lunas, New Mexico, which is part of the Los Lunas Public Schools district. Despite serving a predominantly low-income student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Bosque Farms Elementary has consistently been one of the highest-performing schools in the district and the state.

Bosque Farms Elementary significantly outperforms the state and district averages on standardized tests, with 54% of students proficient or better in Language Arts (compared to 38% statewide) and 40% proficient or better in Math (compared to 24% statewide). The school also excels in supporting the academic achievement of its diverse student population, ranking in the top 25 in the state for Hispanic and English Language Learner students, and in the top 15 for Native American students. This suggests the school is effectively meeting the needs of its majority-minority student body.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Los Lunas district and the surrounding area, such as Desert View Elementary, Los Padillas Elementary, and Ann Parish Elementary, Bosque Farms Elementary stands out as a high-performing outlier. Many of the nearby schools struggle to match Bosque Farms' academic achievement, particularly in Math and Science, highlighting the school's ability to provide a quality education to its students despite the challenges of serving a predominantly low-income community.

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.
