Summary

Coronado Elementary is a K–5 school in Hobbs, New Mexico, serving 422 students as part of Hobbs Municipal Schools, a district ranked 68th of 87 in New Mexico. Coronado Elementary itself ranks 163rd of 346 New Mexico elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 53rd percentile with 3 stars — placing it well above its district but only mid-pack statewide. Its rank history shows long-term improvement with recent fluctuation: from 343rd of 421 (19th percentile) in 2014–2015 to a peak of 97th of 435 (78th percentile, 4 stars) in 2022–2023, then back to 163rd of 346 (53rd percentile) in 2025–2026.

Math is Coronado's clear strength. All-grade math proficiency is 40.84%, roughly 15–16 percentage points above both the district (23.32%) and state (25.54%) and the highest among nearby Hobbs schools, ahead of Mills Elementary (40.1%), Sanger Elementary (36.14%), Taylor Elementary (33.51%), and Murray Elementary (27.63%). Fifth-grade math is the standout: 59.7% proficient, nearly double the district (34.81%) and state (33.85%) and far ahead of every nearby school with reported data. Fifth-grade science (28.36%) also leads nearby schools, though it trails the state's 31.97%. English language arts is more mixed: 41.88% all-grade, above the district's 38.02% but below the state's 43.34%, ranking fifth among nearby schools, with grade 4 ELA (42.65%) a distinct weak spot.

Class sizes are relatively large — a student–teacher ratio of 18.3, up from 16.1 in 2022–2023 — and about 59.95% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025. English language learner students have been a consistent strength, ranking in the 73rd–83rd percentiles (4 stars) across three recent years. Other subgroups are less stable: special education swung from the 96th percentile (5 stars) in 2022–2023 to the 27th percentile (1 star) in 2023–2024, low-SES students fell to the 33rd percentile (2 stars) in 2025–2026, and female students dropped to the 21st percentile (1 star). Overall, Coronado Elementary is a relative bright spot in a struggling district, with math as its flagship and grades 3–4 ELA as its clearest improvement target.
