The state of New Mexico is about to warn Cochiti Elementary, a public school located on the Cochiti Pueblo reservation, that it will be taken over in two years unless it improves its performance.

Principal June Reed told The Albuquerque Journal she hadn't gotten the warning yet, but that it is undeserved. She said test scores have improved recently.

The scores of fourth-graders increased from the 22.5 percentile to 35.5 over the past three years. But the state considers the 40th percentile as the cutoff point for satisfactory performance.
