CENTRAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

CENTRAL ELEMENTARY is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the COBRE school district, located in SANTA CLARA, NM with about 272 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 19 teachers, CENTRAL ELEMENTARY has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Serving the local community, the school focuses on fostering a supportive learning environment for young students as they begin their academic journeys. As a rural district school, it plays a vital role in the Santa Clara area, emphasizing foundational literacy, numeracy, and social development to prepare its students for future success in middle school and beyond.

The school’s official portal serves as a central hub for parents and guardians to stay informed about district news, academic calendars, and school-specific resources. By maintaining a clear line of communication through their website, CENTRAL ELEMENTARY aims to integrate families into the educational process, ensuring that students receive consistent support both in the classroom and at home.
