Summary

Valley View Elementary is a public elementary school in Roswell, New Mexico, serving 421 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Roswell school district, which is ranked 49 out of 82 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Valley View Elementary has consistently ranked in the top half of New Mexico elementary schools, with its performance on state assessments generally on par with or slightly above the Roswell district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics. The school has shown relatively strong performance for its Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) student subgroups, ranking in the top half of New Mexico elementary schools in recent years. However, the school's White and Special Education student subgroups have struggled, with rankings in the bottom half or bottom third of New Mexico elementary schools. Despite these disparities, Valley View Elementary has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, suggesting it is performing at a relatively stable, average level compared to other New Mexico elementary schools.

Several nearby elementary schools, such as Del Norte Elementary, Military Heights Elementary, and Nancy Lopez Elementary, have outperformed Valley View Elementary on state assessments and have higher statewide rankings. Additionally, Valley View Elementary has a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, with a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, which likely presents unique challenges in terms of resource allocation, student support, and addressing potential barriers to academic success.
