    N ew Mexico now scores near the top on our grading scale for standards and assessments. The state plans to put in place one of the nation's most complete school accountability systems starting this year. The system includes a novel mix of top-down measures and locally set goals.

    * NOTE:The equity grade is based on 1994-95 data, the most recent available.
