Science is this school's clearest strength. In 2025–2026, 11th-grade science proficiency was 54.76% on both the NM Combined and NM-ASR exams, compared with state rates of 34.02% and 34.27%. In 2024–2025, 11th-grade NM-ASR science proficiency was even higher at 70.27%, versus a state rate of 41.69%. That said, science did decline year over year — a drop of about 15.5 percentage points — while still remaining well above the state. English Language Arts moved the other direction: 11th-grade SAT School Day ELA was 51.35% in 2024–2025, above the state's 38.44%, but fell to 33.33% in 2025–2026, slightly below the state's 37.07%. The 11th-grade NM Combined Language Arts result was also 33.33%, below the state's 36.78%.

Mathematics results are reported only as "under 20%" — an upper bound, not an exact or zero rate — so they cannot be compared precisely. In all-grades NM Combined mathematics, the state rate is 25.54%, so the school's bound falls below the state on that metric, while other math rows have state rates between 12.53% and 12.72%, where the direction is unclear.

The current district snapshot is 34th of 87, 61st percentile, 3 stars. The school's most recent reported graduation rate was 91.4% in 2023–2024; the state's 2024–2025 rate was 80.6%.
