Roots & Wings Community

Summary:

Roots & Wings Community is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in Questa, New Mexico, with a total enrollment of 52 students. Despite its small size, the school has consistently delivered strong academic results, ranking 2nd out of 420 New Mexico elementary schools in the 2021-2022 school year and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school's performance has been somewhat volatile, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 2nd and 200th place over the past three years, it has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating consistent high performance. Academically, Roots & Wings Community students performed slightly below the state average in English Language Arts, with 36% proficient or better compared to the state's 39% average. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 9.1 suggests it may be well-equipped to provide personalized attention and support to its students.

One notable characteristic of Roots & Wings Community is the high percentage of students (69.23%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This socioeconomic challenge may present unique obstacles and opportunities for the school to address the needs of its students and continue improving academic outcomes.
