Summary:

ZIP code 88310 is served by a single high school, Alamogordo High, which enrolls 1,440 students in grades 9–12 as part of Alamogordo Public Schools in Alamogordo, New Mexico.

Because it is the only high school in this ZIP code, there is no local school-to-school comparison, so the most useful benchmark is how Alamogordo High compares with New Mexico as a whole — and it comes out ahead in every reported subject. In 2025–26, 11th graders scored 46.76% proficient on NM Combined Language Arts and 47.22% on SAT School Day English Language Arts, roughly 10 percentage points above the state on each. Science was similarly strong: 44.64% on NM Combined and 44.76% on NM-ASR, about 10.5 points above state. Math is the clear weak spot, at 15.7% on NM Combined and 15.86% on SAT School Day. That is still about 3 percentage points above the state average, but it means fewer than 1 in 5 students reached proficiency.

The 2024–25 graduation rate was 81.0%, only slightly above the state's 80.6%. The school reports 100% free/reduced lunch participation and a 14.9:1 student-teacher ratio. Its statewide rank improved each year — 59th of 172 in 2023–24, 52nd of 131 in 2024–25, and 48th of 132 in 2025–26 — while percentile moved 66 → 60 → 64 and the school held a steady 3-star rating. The district ranks 41 of 87 districts statewide, at the 53rd percentile with 3 stars. Overall, Alamogordo High posts above-state results across all tested subjects, with English/language arts and science as its strengths and math as the area needing the most attention.
