Summary

Monte Del Sol Charter is a public charter high school serving grades 7-12 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with an enrollment of 356 students. The school is part of the Monte Del Sol Charter District, which is ranked 43 out of 82 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Monte Del Sol Charter has had mixed academic performance in recent years. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school ranked 36 out of 131 New Mexico high schools and received a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, its performance has been more inconsistent in previous years, with rankings ranging from 70 to 99 out of 170-182 high schools and 2-3 star ratings. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with stronger results for Hispanic students and students from low-income families compared to female and male students. Monte Del Sol Charter's four-year graduation rates have been relatively stable, ranging from 76.6% to 87.5% over the past few years, but its test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science have been below the state averages.

When compared to other nearby charter schools, such as Nm School For The Arts and Mandela International Magnet (Mims), Monte Del Sol Charter performs significantly worse in academic metrics like test scores and statewide rankings. However, the school generally outperforms traditional public high schools in the Santa Fe area, such as Santa Fe High and Capital High, in these measures. The school has shown strong performance for its special education and homeless student populations, suggesting it may have effective strategies in place to support these vulnerable populations.
