November 2023 - New Mexico Education

Home2023November

New Mexico faces scrutiny over its education funding and student performance, with legislators expressing frustration over stagnant academic results despite increased spending. The state's education funding formula, dating back to 1974, is challenged by declining student enrollment and evolving educational needs. Legislators criticize the Public Education Department for not adequately addressing issues raised by the 2018 Yazzie/Martinez decision, particularly for marginalized student groups, despite significant investment in the education sector.
