Summary:
The 88435 zip code area in New Mexico is home to three small schools: Santa Rosa Elementary, Santa Rosa High, and Santa Rosa Middle. These schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the three schools, Santa Rosa Middle stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 88th out of 235 New Mexico middle schools and outperforming the state average in English Language Arts and Science. In contrast, all three schools consistently underperform the state average in Mathematics proficiency. Santa Rosa Elementary and Santa Rosa High have also seen their statewide rankings decline in recent years, suggesting potential areas for improvement.
Despite the challenges faced by these schools, they also have some strengths, such as the relatively low student-teacher ratios and the potential for improvement in Science proficiency at the middle and elementary school levels. However, the consistently high poverty levels in the area may require targeted support and resources to address the unique needs of the student population and improve overall academic performance.
