Summary:

New America School - Las Cruces is the sole public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in the New America School - Las Cruces district. With a total enrollment of 178 students, the school has seen a steady decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a 2-star rating in 2018-2019 to a 0-star rating in the current 2024-2025 school year.

Academically, the school is struggling, with only 18.92% of 11th-grade students proficient or better on the 2024-2025 NM-ASR/Science assessment, compared to the statewide average of 41.69%. Similarly, on the 2024-2025 SAT School Day/English Language Arts assessment, just 20% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better, well below the statewide average of 38.44%. The school's 4-year graduation rate for 2023-2024 was 78.0%, which is also below the state's performance.

Compounding the academic challenges, New America School - Las Cruces has a high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, at nearly 99% for the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the student population is predominantly from low-income families, which can present additional obstacles in terms of academic support and resources. Despite the relatively small student-teacher ratio of 16.5, the school's performance continues to lag behind the state's averages, indicating a need for significant interventions and support systems to improve student outcomes.
