Summary:
Solare Collegiate Charter School is the sole middle school located in the Solare Collegiate Charter School District in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 295 students. While the school has some areas of academic strength, particularly in 8th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, its overall performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in both subjects generally below the state averages.
Solare Collegiate Charter School's English Language Arts proficiency rates range from 34.48% in 5th grade to 45.68% in 8th grade, compared to state averages of 41.83% and 46.45%, respectively.

The school's Science proficiency rates are slightly above the state average, with 33.33% in 5th grade and 40.24% in 8th grade.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.6 students per teacher, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention, the school faces significant challenges, as evidenced by its high free and reduced lunch rate of 100.34%, suggesting a predominantly low-income student population. The school's ranking and rating within the state of New Mexico have also fluctuated in recent years, with a drop from a 3-star to a 2-star rating in the 2022-2023 school year, followed by a return to a 3-star rating in the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years.
