Summary

Berino Elementary is a PK–6 neighborhood school at 455 Shrode Rd in Anthony, New Mexico, a southern border community in Doña Ana County, enrolling 300 students as one of eleven elementary schools in Gadsden Independent Schools. Every student qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, and the school's 10.6:1 student–teacher ratio is the second-lowest among its nearby peers. Statewide, it currently ranks 266th of 346 schools — 23rd percentile, 1 star.

Academically, Berino trails both its district and the state. In 2025–26, 35.19% of students were proficient in English language arts and 19.14% in math, while 5th-grade science came in under 20%. Math is the standout weakness: it is the lowest of eleven local schools and roughly 13 points below the district. By contrast, La Union Elementary (57.43% reading, 49.01% math) and North Valley Elementary (54.34% reading, 50.29% math) serve the same community in the same district yet post results 19–31 points higher. Gadsden Elementary, about two miles away with similar enrollment, outperforms Berino by roughly 10 points in reading and 20 in math — with larger classes.

There is real progress to build on. Reading proficiency has risen four straight years, from 22% to 35.19%, narrowing the gap to the state from about 16 points to 9.5. Math shows no comparable recovery, and its reading-minus-math gap of 16.1 points is the widest in the group. Fourth-grade reading (45.24%) is a bright spot, close to district and state levels, while 5th grade is the weakest point across reading, math, and science. Male students and English language learners rank above the school as a whole — useful starting points for understanding what already works here.
