Summary:
The 87007 zip code area has just one high school, Laguna-Acoma High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. This school faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges, ranking in the bottom 20% of all New Mexico high schools and having proficiency rates well below state averages in core subjects like science and English Language Arts.
Laguna-Acoma High School's 4-year graduation rate of 76.7% is below the state average, though still above 50%. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.4 students per teacher, which could be leveraged as a strength to provide more individualized attention and support for students. However, the school's high-poverty student population, with 100% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, raises concerns about educational equity and the school's ability to provide the necessary resources and support.
The data suggests that Grants, the school district that Laguna-Acoma High School is part of, is also struggling, ranking 82nd out of 119 districts in New Mexico and rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Targeted interventions and additional resources focused on improving academic outcomes could help drive progress for this school and its students.
