Tse Yi Gai High

Tse Yi Gai High is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in Cuba, New Mexico, with a total enrollment of 53 students. The school is part of the Gallup school district, which is ranked 97 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Tse Yi Gai High has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Mexico high schools over the past decade, with its highest ranking being 68th out of 182 schools in the 2017-2018 school year.

Tse Yi Gai High faces several challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's low academic performance, as evidenced by its low proficiency rates in English Language Arts (27% vs. state average of 39%) and Science (29% vs. state average of 36%), as well as its relatively low four-year graduation rates (ranging from 70.3% to 76.7%), is a significant concern. However, the school's strengths in supporting specific student subgroups, such as Native American and female students, suggest that there may be opportunities to build on these successes and improve the overall educational outcomes for the school.

Compared to the Gallup school district as a whole, Tse Yi Gai High's performance is mixed, with the school outperforming the district average in some areas, such as Science proficiency, while lagging behind in others, such as ELA proficiency. When compared to the state averages, Tse Yi Gai High's performance is consistently below the state in key metrics like graduation rates and academic proficiency, indicating that the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly Native American student population, all of whom qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
