Summary:

Schools in this area consist of a single campus: Albuquerque Bilingual Academy, a PK–8 school with 328 students in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is classified as an elementary school but serves middle grades as well, and it is also its own single-school district, Albuquerque Bilingual Academy, so district and school test results are identical. The student–teacher ratio is 14.5 for 2024–2025, and no free/reduced lunch percentage was provided, so socioeconomic context is not available.

Academically, the school trails New Mexico in every reported overall subject. In 2025–2026, ELA proficiency was 34.24% versus 44.66% statewide, math was 11.41% versus 27.85%, and science was 16.0% versus 33.62% — gaps of roughly 10 to 18 percentage points. Math is the clearest concern, with a school rate less than half the state's. The brightest spot is 4th grade ELA at 60.71% proficient, about 9.8 points above the state's 50.89%, and 4th grade math at 28.57% also edges above the state's 27.23%. By contrast, 7th and 8th grade ELA lag state by roughly 15 to 17 points, 5th grade science is 16.67% versus 32.24%, and 5th and 8th grade math are reported as under 20%. Several middle-grade results — 6th grade ELA and math, 3rd grade math, and 8th grade science — are suppressed by the state, meaning they are unknown rather than zero.

Trends are encouraging but partial. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA rose 4.97 points and math rose 5.04 points, while science slipped 0.90 points. The school's ranking improved from 1 star and the 17th percentile in 2024–2025 to 2 stars and the 32nd percentile in 2025–2026, placing it 234th of 346 schools, though still below its 2023–2024 percentile. The district rating of 1 star and the 15th percentile reflects a different comparison group of 87 districts, so it is best read as separate context rather than a contradiction.
