Summary:
The 88008 zip code area in New Mexico is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Gadsden school district. While the district as a whole struggles, with a 1-star rating, some individual schools in the area stand out as stronger performers.
Santa Teresa Elementary appears to be the highest-performing school, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics exceeding both the district and state averages. It has a 3-star rating and consistently ranks in the top half of New Mexico elementary schools. The Santa Teresa Middle school also performs relatively well, with proficiency above the district average in English Language Arts. In contrast, Santa Teresa High has lower proficiency rates than the district and state in both subjects.
Across the schools, student-teacher ratios are relatively small, ranging from 9.3 to 17, which may contribute to the stronger performance at the elementary and middle school levels. However, the district-wide challenges, including a 78.0% four-year graduation rate at Santa Teresa High that falls below the state average, suggest the need for further investigation and support to address the performance gaps between the schools and improve outcomes for all students in the 88008 zip code area.
