Summary:
Milan, New Mexico has just one school in this data set: Milan Elementary, a PK–6 elementary school with 410 students at 404 Sand Milan, part of Grants-Cibola County Schools. Because there is no local middle or high school in the list, families should judge this school against its district and the state rather than against other Milan schools. The district itself ranks 64th of 87 in New Mexico, at the 26th percentile with 1 star, and nearly all students—98.78%—qualify for free or reduced lunch, with a student-teacher ratio of 11:1.
Milan Elementary generally performs above its district but below the state. All-grades ELA is 38.12% proficient (district 34.03%, state 43.34%), and all-grades math is 18.83% (district 16.37% to 18.55%, state 25.54% to 27.85%). There are real bright spots by grade: 4th grade ELA at 50.91% and 4th grade math at 34.55% are above both district and state, and 5th grade ELA at 44.07% also beats both. 5th grade science is 27.12%, slightly above the district (26.7%) but below the state (31.97%). The main concerns are math overall, 3rd grade ELA at 20.45% (district 31%, state 44.33%), 3rd grade math at under 20%, 6th grade math at under 10%, and 6th grade ELA at 33.85%, all below district and state. Two math figures are reported only as bounds, so they cannot be treated as exact numbers.
The trend is encouraging: the school's state percentile rose from 28th in 2023–24 to 31st in 2024–25 to 36th in 2025–26, and its stars improved from 1 star to 2 stars. Year over year, all-grades math improved from 16.74% to 18.83% and 5th grade science from 21.54% to 27.12%, narrowing gaps with the state, while all-grades ELA slipped from 41.63% to 38.12%, widening its gap. Overall, this is a high-poverty school making measurable progress, with grade-level strengths in 4th grade ELA/math and 5th grade ELA, and math—especially 3rd and 6th grade—as the clearest area to watch.
