In contrast, while Texico High School also performs well above the state average, its rankings and proficiency rates are not as remarkable as the lower grade levels.

Additionally, the schools' low student-teacher ratios likely contribute to the individualized attention and support provided to students. The consistent high performance of Texico Elementary and Texico Middle is a testament to the district's commitment to delivering an excellent education to the community.
