Summary:

The Alamogordo school district in New Mexico consists of 14 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district is ranked 35 out of 82 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out in the district. Holloman Elementary and Holloman Middle are exceptional performers, ranking 25th and 9th in the state respectively and earning 5-star ratings. These schools have extremely high test scores, with over 50% of students proficient in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, North Elementary struggles, with lower test scores and a higher free/reduced lunch rate of 60%.

The Alamogordo school district as a whole has room for improvement, as indicated by its middle-of-the-pack ranking and 3-star rating. While some schools like Sierra Elementary and Buena Vista Elementary perform well, the disparities in performance across the district suggest that targeted interventions and support may be needed to raise overall student achievement.
