Summary:
The 87801 zip code area in New Mexico is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. This area serves a predominantly low-income population, as evidenced by the high free/reduced lunch rates across all the schools.
The standout school in this set is Cottonwood Valley Charter, a charter school that has consistently ranked among the top 54 elementary schools in the state over the past 3 years. Cottonwood Valley Charter significantly outperforms the Socorro district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency. In contrast, the other schools in the data set, including Socorro High, Parkview Elementary, and R. Sarracino Middle, have proficiency rates well below the state averages.
The data also reveals that Socorro High had a 4-year graduation rate of 76.7% in 2022-2023, which is below the state average. Additionally, the student-teacher ratios vary across the schools, with Cottonwood Valley Charter having the lowest ratio at 12.1 and Socorro High having the highest ratio at 16.9. These insights suggest that targeted interventions and support may be necessary to help improve student outcomes at the lower-performing schools in the 87801 zip code area.
