Best Public Schools in Zip Code 88023


Summary:

The 88023 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Cobre Consolidated Schools district. Unfortunately, these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages, with low test scores, poor rankings, and serving a predominantly Hispanic student population living in high-poverty conditions.

None of the schools in the 88023 area stand out as high-performing. Bayard Elementary has the highest proficiency rates among the three, but still lags behind state averages in language arts, math, and science. Cobre High School has the lowest proficiency rates, with only 21% of students proficient in language arts and just 5% in math. All three schools have very low statewide rankings, with Cobre High ranked 135th out of 170 high schools.

The student demographics across the schools are also concerning, with 88-90% of students being Hispanic and 100% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the schools serve a high-poverty population, which may contribute to the low academic performance. The lack of diversity in the student body is another area that could be improved. Overall, the data indicates a need for significant interventions and support to address the persistent challenges facing the schools in the 88023 zip code area.
