Introduction New Mexico’s Children Youth and Families Department (CYFD) established Early Childhood Investment Zones in 2010. Since that time CYFD has prioritized funding for these communities when new funding streams have become available for early childhood services. A taskforce from the New Mexico Department of Health, Public Education Department, and Children Youth and Families Department used epidemiological data to compare levels of risk and resiliency across New Mexico’s communities to rank these geographical areas by levels of risk. Those with the highest aggregated need were identified as Investment Zones. These Early Childhood Investment Zones touch every region and every border of New Mexico, and range from frontier to urban population centers covering 11 counties and 35 school districts. Data were gathered and analyzed from all New Mexico’s counties and school districts. The combined county and school district data allowed a broad look at indicators associated with health, family environment, poverty levels, child development, and factors that support literacy and school readiness. Also included were indicators related to school success, including graduation rates, resource investment at the school district level, and support for pregnant and parenting teens. The intent is that these communities “establish community-‐specific capacity building, infrastructure development and comprehensive integrated early childhood care, health and education services in ways that can be used as models by other communities across the state,” State of New Mexico Race to the Top Early Learning Challenge Application For Phase 2 Funding, 2012. This Early Childhood Data Profile includes many early childhood indicators that can be used in local planning efforts. Data presented here are categorized into four broad domains:
• Birth factors; • Family Environment factors; • Education factors; • Economic factors.

This report provides data on the Magdalena Municipal School District in Socorro County, which ranked second highest in severity for early childhood educational risk factors (a number one denotes the highest severity of risk, while a ranking of 33 indicates the lowest severity). Among the factors in which Magdalena Municipal Schools (Magdalena District) ranked highly were:
• Lack of school-‐based health centers; • Percentage of Title I designated schools (100%); • Percentage of students with no access to GRADS program (100%); • Percentage of elementary schools graded “D” or “F” (100%).

Because of a relatively low population base in the Magdalena Municipal Schools District, birth-‐related data are only available on a county level. The table below shows the number of live births to all women in Socorro for the past three years. Based upon the current population less than age five in the Magdalena District (169), on average there are 34 births per year, which represents 14% of all births in the county.

The timing between pregnancies may affect the risk of pregnancy complications. A Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) report from October 2006 cited a large study (Fuentes-‐Afflick et al) in which women with short interpregnancy spacing (IPS) were more likely to have a premature birth. The study also found that women with the shortest intervals had the highest risk of premature births. Women with IPS of less than three months were at higher risk for preterm births (earlier than 37 weeks), small gestational age (less than the tenth percentile), and low birth weight (less than 2500 grams).

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that women with an interpregnancy interval less than 18 months are at greater risk of delivering a low birthweight infant compared to women with interpregnancy intervals of 24 to 36 months. The tables below lists rates for interpregnancy spacing in Socorro County by birthweights, compared to statewide rates. All births were to women who had previously given birth. No interpregnancy intervals of less than seven months were reported. Of those who had a subsequent child between seven and 12 months after their previous birth, four, or 26% gave birth to low or very low birthweight infants. For women who had an additional birth between 13 and 15 months after their previous birth, two, or 11% gave birth to low over very low birthweight infants; for those who waited between 16 and 24 months, six, or 9% had low or very low birthweight infants. For the women who waited the recommended minimum of two years, six, or 4% gave birth to low or very low birthweight infants.

The dangers of tobacco use to infants during pregnancy include premature birth, some birth defects, and infant death. Even second-‐hand exposure to cigarettes can put a woman and her baby at risk. Following are birthweight statistics for women who reported using tobacco during pregnancy. Of the 115 women who reported using tobacco while pregnant, 16, or 14%, gave birth to low or very low birthweight babies.

3 CYFD, New Mexico Juvenile Justice Services Annual Report, FY2013 Postpartum depression can interfere with parenting, and lead to poor physical and mental health in children. While county-‐level data are not available, the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring Systems (PRAMS) Surveillance Report published in 2012 contains state-‐level information compiled between 2009 and 2010. Among 17 states collecting information on postpartum depressive symptoms, New Mexico mothers reported the highest rate, 20%, for the 2004-‐2005 reporting period. Additionally, during the 2006-‐2008 time frame, 22.4% of Native American mothers reported these symptoms, compared to 19% of Hispanic, and 16.4% of non-‐Hispanic White women. Postpartum depression may be a complication of giving birth, and can be associated with fear, anxiety, or stress, and may result in longer-‐term depression. The following data display the number of women responding to the PRAMS survey who reported experiencing postpartum depression. Over the three years of data displayed below, 18% of women who responded to the PRAMS survey reported experiencing postpartum depression.

Positive and impactful early learning is key to children’s later social emotional and intellectual success, yet many of New Mexico’s children lack access to consistent, high-‐quality care and educational opportunities. A new and major body of research from multiple fields has demonstrated that the most important period of brain development is during the first six years of life. This sets the stage for children’s school success. High-‐quality early child care and education can contribute to this success. These include services such as: prenatal care, home visiting and parent mentoring, licensed child care, and preschool programs. Early Learning Factors Home Visiting programs are voluntary services designed to promote child wellbeing and prevent adverse childhood experiences. Trained staff work with home visiting programs to promote effective parental skills and increase parenting confidence, and support successful early childhood health and development. There are no state-‐funded home visiting programs in the Magdalena Municipal Schools District at this time. Other privately-‐funded home visiting programs may exist there, but their capacity data are not published. The table below lists the number of childcare providers in the Magdalena District. There are no licensed child care centers in the district, but registered home care providers do exist. Data are not available for the number of children receiving childcare subsidies (funds that cover the cost of child care for low-‐income parents who are working and/or in school).

According to the PEW Center 2011 report, Transforming Public Education: Pathway to a PreK-‐12 Future, “Participation in high-‐quality early education programs not only improves early literacy and math skills, but is also associated with later academic performance in the primary grades and beyond.” In New Mexico, only 40% of children attend preschool (2013 Kids Count). No Head Start or Early Head Start programs exist in the Magdalena Municipal Schools District (CYFD Head Start, Early Head Start Providers, Spring 2014). The following table lists enrollment numbers for the Magdalena Municipal Schools PreK site funded by the New Mexico Public Education (PED). According to the CYFD New Mexico PreK Annual Report 2012-‐2013, there are currently no PreK sites funded by CYFD in the district.

School-‐based health centers (SBHC) provide services to students that include primary medical care, behavioral health services, and health promotion and education. There are no SBHC in the Magdalena Municipal Schools District. The consequences of insufficient access to high-‐quality early education can be seen as early as third grade, reflected in reading proficiency scores. According to the report, “Learning to Read–Early Warning! Why Reading by the End of Third Grade Matters,” conducted for the Annie E. Casey Foundation in 2010 (Fiester, L. & Smith, R.), “Reading proficiency by fourth grade is considered a ‘make or break’ benchmark for whether a child will succeed in school and in life.” Because children learn to read through third grade, in fourth grade they must “read to learn.” Following are reading and math proficiency rates published by PED for Magdalena Municipal Schools, compared to statewide rates.

Title I designation is based on poverty levels. In schools with Title I designations, at least 40% of students are from low-‐income families. Funding is distributed to schools and school districts for educational purposes, dropout prevention, and school improvement. One-‐hundred percent of the schools the Magdalena District are designated Title I. Secondary School Education Factors Research indicates that children who are not proficient readers by fourth grade are more likely to drop out or not graduate from high school. (“Learning to Read-‐Early Warning! Why Reading by the End of Third Grade matters”). New Mexico’s low proficiency scores correlate with the state’s gradation rates. In a 2012 report from the U.S. Department of Education only one state ranked lower than New Mexico for on-‐time graduation rates. Graduation and dropout rates for the Magdalena School District are displayed in the table below.

The New Mexico GRADS initiatives are in-‐school programs designed to help teenage parents graduate from high school by teaching students how to balance work and family roles. Programs offer on-‐site childcare, and GRADS instructors teach career readiness, youth leadership, and special programs for fathers. According to the New Mexico GRADS program, in 2013 eighty-‐two percent of teen mothers enrolled in GRADS graduated from high school, compared to approximately 50% of teen mothers nationwide who did not participate in GRADS. Currently there are no GRADS programs in the Magdalena Municipal Schools District.
