Summary:

The Hobbs school district in New Mexico consists of 18 schools, including 13 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The district serves a diverse student population with varying academic performance across the schools.

Several schools stand out as high-performing, including Mills Elementary, which ranks 75th out of 345 elementary schools in the state and has a 4-star rating. Other top-performing schools are Coronado Elementary and Broadmoor Elementary, both of which have 3-star ratings and above-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. On the middle school side, Houston Middle School stands out, ranking 90th out of 192 middle schools in the state and earning a 3-star rating.

However, the district also faces significant challenges, with the high school, Hobbs High, having a 78.0% four-year graduation rate, which is below the state average. Additionally, Hobbs schools generally underperform the state averages on standardized tests, and many have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Addressing these disparities and improving educational outcomes for all students in the Hobbs district will be crucial moving forward.
