Summary:

The Santa Fe school district in New Mexico comprises 29 schools, including 20 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The district is ranked 46 out of 82 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Several schools in the Santa Fe district stand out for their exceptional performance. El Dorado Community School and Wood-Gormley Elementary are both ranked among the top 20 elementary schools in the state and have 5-star ratings, with proficiency rates over 75% in English Language Arts and over 50% in Mathematics. Mandela International Magnet, a 7th-12th grade public charter school, is ranked 7th out of 131 high schools in the state and also has a 5-star rating, with exceptional performance in ELA, Math, and Science.

However, the Santa Fe district as a whole is underperforming the state averages, with an average of 42.76% proficiency in ELA and 24.12% proficiency in Math, compared to state averages of 44.19% in ELA and 26.81% in Math. This suggests there may be opportunities to learn from the top-performing schools and implement strategies to raise achievement across the district.
