Welcome

Quemado Schools is located just east of the intersection of HWY 60 and NM 36 on HWY 60.  Quemado Schools is an integral part of our local rural ranching community. Students are bussed to school from smaller outlying communities making for a culturally diverse student body.  The class sizes are small allowing our teachers more time for each student.  The staff at each of our campuses truly cares that each student thrives and achieves their academic goals.
