Martin Luther King, Jr. MLK made AYP this year.
Puesta del Sol Puesta del Sol made AYP this year.
Rio Rancho Elem. Rio Rancho ES made AYP this year.
Vista Grande Vista Grande made AYP this year.
Eagle Ridge Middle Based on just one of these 37 data points -- reading scores for students with disabilities -- Eagle Ridge failed to make AYP this year.  As is true throughout the country, we have found it difficult to bring the achievement levels of students with disabilities up to the same level as regular education students, but we remain committed to improving special education results and helping these students succeed.  We have already begun evaluating the results from the tests along with other data to determine where we are not meeting students’ needs and to change our instructional practices to better serve students.

Because Eagle Ridge has failed to make AYP for three consecutive years, it has been designated a "school in need of improvement"; click here for more information.

Lincoln Middle Lincoln made AYP this year.
Mountain View Middle Mountain View made AYP this year.
Rio Rancho Mid High

Based on just one data point -- reading scores for students with disabilities -- Rio Rancho Mid-High failed to make AYP this year. This occurred despite a six-point gain in the percentage of students with disabilities demonstrating proficiency. As is true throughout the country, we have found it difficult to bring the achievement levels of students with disabilities up to the same level as regular education students, but we remain committed to improving special education results and helping these students succeed. We have already begun evaluating the results from the tests along with other data to determine where we are not meeting students’ needs and to change our instructional practices to better serve students.

Rio Rancho High

Based on just two data points -- special education scores in reading and mathematics -- Rio Rancho HS failed to make AYP this year. As is true throughout the country, we have found it difficult to bring the achievement levels of students with disabilities up to the same level as regular education students, but we remain committed to improving special education results and helping these students succeed. We have already begun evaluating the results from the tests along with other data to determine where we are not meeting students’ needs and to change our instructional practices to better serve students.

Independence High

We are pleased that Independence HS’s graduation rate showed a significant increase -- from 47.7% to nearly 83%. However, the school failed to reach the state targets in mathematics. We will closely review these results to see what adjustments are necessary to help students achieve proficiency in math. Independence is also making major changes in its educational programs.

Rio Rancho Cyber Academy The Cyber Academy -- a new school in 2005-06 -- failed to make AYP based on the percentage of students completing the test. To make AYP, a school must achieve a “participation rate” of 95% for all students and for each “subgroup” of students. The participation rate for Cyber Academy students was approximately 92%. Had two additional students completed the test, the Cyber Academy would have made AYP.
