Summary:
ZIP code 87301 covers Gallup, New Mexico, where five high schools enroll roughly 3,488 students. Three are operated by Gallup-McKinley City Schools (60th of 87 districts, 31st percentile, 2 stars): Gallup Central Alternative, Miyamura High School, and Gallup High. The other two are standalone charter schools: Middle College High School Charter - Gallup (34th of 87, 3 stars) and Six Directions Indigenous School. Gallup Central and Six Directions serve grades 6–12, so their all-grade results include middle schoolers and are not directly comparable to the 9–12 campuses' 11th-grade scores.
Middle College High School Charter - Gallup is the clear academic standout: 11th-grade science of 54.76% versus about 34% statewide, 70.27% in 2024-25 versus 41.69% statewide, the only above-state graduation rate on record (91.4% versus 80.6%), and the only top-quartile rank (82nd percentile in 2024-25). Its math is reported only as under 20%, so it cannot be precisely ranked. Miyamura High School is the most improved district school, climbing from the 29th to 47th percentile before settling at 37, with a graduation rate of 83.5% and 2024-25 science of 45.3% — both above state figures.
Gallup High has slid from the 18th to the 8th percentile and 0 stars, posts a 75.9% graduation rate, and trails the state in every reported 2025-26 subject. Gallup Central Alternative, the largest campus at 1,244 students, has the lowest graduation rate here (56.3%, roughly 24 points below the state) and a 3rd-percentile rank. Six Directions Indigenous School, with 58 students and 100% free/reduced lunch, has no test data reported for 2025-26, so its academics are unknown. Math is a system-wide weakness — no school here clearly outperforms the state's 12.72%.
