There is only one elementary school located in Dulce, New Mexico - Dulce Elementary. This school serves students from the Dulce community, which is a high-poverty area.

Dulce Elementary is a consistently low-performing school, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in English Language Arts (12%), Mathematics (4%), and Science (16%), compared to New Mexico's averages of 39%, 25%, and 36% respectively. The school's performance has declined over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 385 out of 396 in 2018-2019 to 426 out of 433 in 2023-2024.

Addressing these challenges will likely require a comprehensive approach that addresses both academic and socioeconomic factors impacting the school community.
