Summary:
The 87752 zip code area is home to two small, rural schools - Wagon Mound Elementary and Wagon Mound High, both serving the Wagon Mound school district. These schools have faced declining performance over the years, with small enrollments of just 35 students each and high poverty levels, as indicated by 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Wagon Mound Elementary has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate, currently ranking 208 out of 413 New Mexico elementary schools and rated 3 out of 5 stars. Its English Language Arts proficiency rate of 35% lags behind the state average of 39%. In contrast, Wagon Mound High has experienced a more significant decline, going from 25th out of 134 high schools in 2004-2005 to 133rd out of 198 in 2013-2014, with a 2 out of 5 star rating.
Despite the challenges, both schools benefit from exceptionally low student-teacher ratios, with Wagon Mound Elementary at 3.8 to 1 and Wagon Mound High at 4.3 to 1. This suggests the potential for more individualized attention and support, though it may also be a sign of limited resources and staffing challenges in these small, rural schools.
