Monterrey Elementary

Summary:

Monterrey Elementary is a public elementary school in Roswell, New Mexico, serving 409 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Roswell Independent Schools district, which is ranked 63 out of 119 districts in the state.

Monterrey Elementary has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (83.86%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 42.35% to 94.18% Hispanic students. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, is generally lower than the nearby schools, such as Military Heights Elementary and Sidney Gutierrez Middle. However, Monterrey Elementary has shown consistent improvement over time, moving from a 1-star rating in 2012-2013 to a 3-star rating in the most recent school year (2022-2023).

Monterrey Elementary's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, may be a contributing factor to its relatively lower academic performance compared to the nearby schools. However, the school's proficiency rates in Early Literacy for grades 1 and 2 are relatively higher compared to the overall Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates, suggesting a potential focus on early literacy development. Continued focus on addressing the specific needs of its diverse student population and learning from the successful practices of higher-performing nearby schools could help Monterrey Elementary further improve its academic outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
