Summary

Cochiti Elementary is a PK–5 school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serving 247 students as part of Albuquerque Public Schools, in a community where 99.6% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The district itself ranks below average statewide — 55th of 87 districts, 37th percentile, 2 stars — and Cochiti's 2025–2026 statewide rank is 259th of 346 schools, 25th percentile, 1 star, which is below its own district. Over the past decade the school has generally ranked in the low-to-mid 20s–30s percentile, with a high of 50th percentile / 3 stars in 2014–2015 and a low of 13th percentile in 2018–2019.

In 2025–2026, 34.38% of students were proficient in English language arts (district 43.55%, state 43.34%) and 16.67% in math (district 25.74%, state 25.54%) — roughly 9 points below both district and state in each subject. Math is the largest gap, although it improved from 10.31% the year before, and every reported grade-level math score trails district and state. Fourth-grade math was suppressed by the state, so that figure is unknown rather than a weakness. Science is a genuine bright spot: 36.84% of 5th graders were proficient, above district (32.75%) and state (31.97%), and above nearby Longfellow Elementary (33.33%), Griegos Elementary (28.57%), Reginald Chavez Elementary (22.86%) and Christine Duncan Heritage Academy (13.56%).

Among nearby schools, Cochiti's results sit closest to MacArthur Elementary, Lew Wallace Elementary and Longfellow, while Mountain Mahogany Community School, Montessori Of The Rio Grande and The Montessori Academy post stronger ELA and math results. Subgroup effectiveness varies widely: English Language Learner students ranked 85th percentile (4 stars) in 2023–2024, a standout result, and female students reached 61st percentile that year. Male students have been consistently low (12th–15th percentile), and low-income students recently ranked in the low 20s–30s percentile. The clearest priorities are math and ELA, while protecting the science and ELL strengths.
