Summary:
ZIP code 88101 is home to 14 public schools — nine elementary, three middle, one high school and one alternative school — all part of Clovis Municipal Schools, a district ranked 57th of 87 in New Mexico at the 34th percentile with 2 stars. Together these schools enroll about 6,527 students, ranging from 1,506 at Clovis High down to 131 at Iacademy. Poverty is the norm: among the 13 schools reporting free/reduced-lunch rates, the average is about 84.2% and the median is 85.1%, topping out at Barry Elementary's 91.88%.
Mesa Elementary is the clearest standout, ranking 25th of 346 elementary schools at the 93rd percentile with 5 stars; its all-grade proficiency is 65.08% in Language Arts and 54.50% in Math, both far above district and state, despite an 88.95% free/reduced-lunch rate. Barry Elementary (67th percentile) posts 53.01% ELA and 38.55% Math with the highest poverty rate in the set, and Zia Elementary (63rd percentile) reaches 53.61% ELA and 33.51% Math, though its rank has slipped from the 91st percentile in 2023-2024 to 63rd now. Among middle schools, W D Gattis Middle School leads in ELA at 49.90%, while Marshall 6th Grade Academy stands out in math at 36.95%. Clovis High's graduation rate is 81.3%, above the state's 80.6%.
At the other end, James Bickley Elementary ranks at the 10th percentile with 0 stars, 22.76% ELA and 14.48% Math, and Arts Academy At Bella Vista and La Casita Elementary sit at the 11th and 18th percentiles. Several values are suppressed or given as bounds — La Casita's free/reduced-lunch figure is blank, and its 3rd-grade math is under 10% — so those should be read cautiously. Student-teacher ratios average about 14.5:1 and don't map neatly onto results: Mesa performs highly at 13.8:1, while Clovis High and Yucca Middle have the highest ratios at 17.7 and 17.2.
