Overview

Canutillo Middle School traces its roots to 1959, when community leaders formally organized the Canutillo Independent School District and broke away from the El Paso County Schools System. Canutillo Middle offers students the opportunity to receive high school credit (credit by exam), and college credit (AP exam) in Spanish by taking an advanced college-level course. CMS is now a center of top academic achievement.

State A-F Rating

The Texas Education Agency (TEA) uses the “approaches” metric in their A-F rating system, which means students are not meeting state standards. At this level, additional support and remediation is needed to excel academically. The “meets” metric is a better indicator of student success, with students having at least a 60% chance of completing college, compared to 20% for students at the approaches metric.
