Summary:
The city of Santa Rosa, New Mexico is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school. The data reveals a mixed picture for the Santa Rosa school district, with Santa Rosa Middle School standing out as a relative bright spot, while Santa Rosa High School and Santa Rosa Elementary School face more significant academic performance challenges.
Santa Rosa Middle School has maintained a strong performance, with a 3-star or 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 3 school years. The school outperformed the state average in English Language Arts and Science, suggesting it is effectively serving its student population, which has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate. In contrast, Santa Rosa High School has consistently underperformed the state average in English Language Arts and Science, with a low 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 3 school years, and a 76.7% four-year graduation rate.
The high free and reduced lunch rates across all three schools (98.51% to 100%) suggest that the Santa Rosa school district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance challenges observed, particularly at the high school level. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the student population and ensure all students in Santa Rosa have access to a high-quality education.
