Summary:

Taos Municipal Schools in the Taos area of northern New Mexico serves K-12 students across 8 schools—5 elementary, 1 middle, and 2 high—with 2,184 students, ranking 42nd of 87 districts (52nd percentile, 3 stars). Enrollment ranges from 749 at Taos High to 12 at Taos Cyber Magnet. Nearly all schools have very high poverty: 7 of 8 report 100% or 99.6% free/reduced lunch, while Anansi Charter School is at 50%. Most student-teacher ratios are 9.3 to 15.5, except Taos Cyber Magnet at 240.0. Suppressed or bounded state values are treated as unknown, not zero.

Academic leaders include Anansi Charter School, ranked 52 of 346 elementary schools (85th percentile, 4 stars), with all-grades ELA 65.89, math 44.19, and science 61.36. Taos Municipal Charter ranks 107 of 346 (69th percentile, 3 stars), with ELA 55.41, math 24.32, and science 35.29, plus strong middle-grade ELA. Arroyo Del Norte Elementary, a 99-student school, had a 2024-2025 rank of 129 of 345 (63rd percentile, 3 stars) and 2025-2026 ELA 48.84 and math 27.91, with 4th-grade ELA 73.33; science is suppressed. Taos High ranks 65 of 132 (51st percentile, 3 stars), with 11th-grade ELA 39.42, science 39.1, and math 11.68, and a graduation rate of 70.9%, equal to the district but below the state’s 80.6%.

Other schools show uneven results. Ranchos De Taos Elementary ranks 258 of 346 (25th percentile, 1 star) but has math strengths: all-grades math 28.21, 3rd-grade math 31.71, and 5th-grade math 32.56; ELA is low at 29.91, and some science is under 20%. Enos Garcia Elementary improved from the 22nd to 37th percentile and from 1 to 2 stars, with ELA 46.62 and 3rd-grade ELA 47.73, but math is 13.51 and 3rd/4th-grade math is under 20%. Taos Middle is at the 25th percentile with 1 star; ELA is 35.76, math 16.14, and 8th-grade science 25, though 7th-grade ELA is 49.54. Taos Cyber Magnet has 12 students and all current scores suppressed, so its current performance is unknown; its last shown rank was 44 of 193 in 2014-2015 (77th percentile, 4 stars). Overall, math is the main district-wide weakness, charters lead, and high school completion trails the state.
