Summary

Farmington High is a large 9–12 comprehensive high school at 2200 Sunset Ave in Farmington, NM, enrolling 1,747 students in Farmington Municipal Schools, the largest school in its comparison group. In 2025–2026, it ranked 86 of 132 high schools statewide (35th percentile, 2 stars), down from mid-50s to mid-60s percentiles and 3 stars in earlier years. The district itself ranks 62 of 87 statewide (29th percentile, 2 stars).

Core proficiency is below both district and state. For 2025–2026 11th grade, language arts was 30.18% proficient, math 8.58%, and science 30.72% on NM Combined (31.1% on NM-ASR). Math is the clearest weakness. Nearby, Piedra Vista High outperformed in language arts, science, and SAT ELA with similar low math; Aztec High was slightly higher in language arts and science; Bloomfield High and Kirtland Central High were lower; Rocinante High was lowest. Same-district San Juan College High School is a major outlier, ranking 24 of 132 (82nd percentile, 4 stars) with much higher ELA and science. Graduation was 80.7% in 2024–2025, slightly above the state (80.6%) but below the district (82.2%) and below Piedra Vista High (82.1%), Bloomfield High (87.7%), and Kirtland Central High (90.0%), after dropping from 86.1% the prior year.

With 1,747 students, the school has a student-teacher ratio of 18.1, the highest among the larger traditional nearby high schools. Reported free/reduced-lunch eligibility reached 100% in 2024–2025, though many nearby schools also report 100%, reflecting a high-poverty regional context. Subgroup rankings show wide internal gaps: White students at the 59th percentile, Hispanic students at 47th, male students at 45th, low-income students at 27th, female students at 18th, Native American students at 17th, and special education students at 9th percentile in recent data. Overall, this is a large, high-poverty comprehensive high school with mid-to-low statewide results, very low math proficiency, a graduation rate still above the state but slipping, and notable equity gaps across student populations.
