School District Report Card

NM Vistas, developed by the Public Education Department, is a public data reporting website that showcases school performance based on state accountability and other required criteria from the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), as mandated by the U.S. Department of Education. The site aims to assist families and community members in identifying schools that are excelling or schools in need of additional support. These school identifications are based on a set of multiple measures informed by stakeholders representing New Mexico's communities.

State law requires school districts and state-chartered charter schools to publish their accountability reports no later than November 15 of each year. Subsection D of Section 22-2C-11 NMSA 1978 states: “The school district's or state-chartered charter school's annual accountability report shall be adopted by the local school board or governing body of the state-chartered charter school, shall be published no later than November 15 of each year and shall be published at least once each school year in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the school district or state-chartered charter school is located as well as online on the website of the school district or state-chartered charter school. In publication, the report shall be titled “The School District Report Card” or “The Charter School Report Card” and disseminated in accordance with guidelines established by the department to ensure effective communication with parents, students, educators, local policymakers and business and community organizations.”

In New Mexico, the school district and charter school report cards are produced by the Public Education Department (PED) and reported on NM Vistas.
