The 88201 zip code area in Roswell, New Mexico is home to 6 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Roswell Independent Schools district. While the district as a whole is ranked 63 out of 119 in the state, the schools in this area show a stark contrast in performance, with some standout institutions and others struggling to meet state standards.

The top-performing schools in the area are Military Heights Elementary and Del Norte Elementary, both earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger and significantly outpacing state averages in Language Arts, Math, and Science proficiency. In contrast, Washington Ave Elementary lags behind, with proficiency rates well below the state's. The lone middle school, Berrendo Middle, also performs reasonably well, earning a 3-star rating.

Across the schools, the student population is diverse, with Hispanic students making up the largest group, followed by White students. Notably, all the schools in the 88201 zip code have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the community. This suggests that targeted interventions and support tailored to the specific needs of each school and its student population could be crucial in addressing the achievement gaps and ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students in the district.
