Summary

East Grand Plains Elementary is a PK–5 school in Roswell, New Mexico, serving 201 students in Roswell Independent Schools, where all students are economically disadvantaged based on free/reduced lunch data.

In 2025–26, it ranked 126th of 346 New Mexico elementary schools (64th percentile, 3 stars), a rebound from 178th of 345 (48th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–25. That places it above the district average but mid-to-upper among nearby Roswell schools: behind Sidney Gutierrez Middle (15th), Nancy Lopez Elementary (104th), and Pecos Elementary (115th), and ahead of Valley View Elementary (129th), Del Norte Elementary (140th), Monterrey Elementary (170th), Military Heights Elementary (183rd), Missouri Ave Elementary (188th), and Sunset Elementary (294th). Washington Ave Elementary had weaker scores and no 2025–26 rank listed. The school was a 4-star school in 2014–15 and 2015–16, so the recent climb is a partial recovery rather than a new peak.

Academically, 2025–26 all-grades proficiency was 43.59% in Language Arts and 27.85% in Math, both above district averages. Math was also above the state combined average and equal to the state NM-MSSA average; ELA was slightly below the district and state on NM-MSSA. Third-grade ELA (48.15%), fourth-grade ELA (55.56%), third-grade Math (37.04%), and fourth-grade Math (28.57%) were above district and state, while 5th-grade and science results were suppressed by the state, so science is unknown rather than a proven weakness. The student-teacher ratio is 6.8, tied with Nancy Lopez Elementary for the lowest among nearby reporting schools and far below Sidney Gutierrez Middle (16.3), Military Heights Elementary (12.5), and Del Norte Elementary (12.0). Recent gains were not evenly spread: boys and special education students showed strong relative results, while girls and English learners were closer to average.
