Summary

Mayfield High is a public high school located in Las Cruces, New Mexico, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,401 students. The school is part of the Las Cruces School District, which is ranked 45 out of 82 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mayfield High has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Mexico high schools, ranging from 97th to 146th out of 158-198 schools over the past decade, and its SchoolDigger rating has fluctuated between 1 and 3 stars out of 5. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students ranking in the middle of the state, but female students and Hispanic students ranking in the bottom third. Mayfield High's performance for special education and disabled students is particularly concerning, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of New Mexico high schools. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like science, English language arts, and mathematics are consistently lower than the state and district averages, and its four-year graduation rates have ranged from 76.7% to 82.1%, slightly below the state and district averages.

Compared to other high schools in the Las Cruces district, such as Organ Mountain High School and Centennial High School, Mayfield High's performance is generally lower. However, Mayfield High outperforms the nearby New America School - Las Cruces, which has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New Mexico high schools. The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, coupled with the school's overall academic underperformance, suggests that Mayfield High may face significant challenges in terms of resource allocation, student support, and addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged population.
