Summary

Hodgin Elementary is a public elementary school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 395 students. The school faces significant academic and demographic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of New Mexico elementary schools in terms of student performance.

Hodgin Elementary's academic performance is significantly below the Albuquerque and New Mexico averages across all grades and subjects. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 24.11% of Hodgin students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 43.65% in Albuquerque and 44.19% statewide. In mathematics, the proficiency rate was just 5.67%, compared to 26.48% in Albuquerque and 26.81% statewide. The school also struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population, with rankings for various student subgroups consistently in the bottom quartile of New Mexico elementary schools.

However, the school's low student-teacher ratio and the presence of higher-performing nearby schools, such as New Mexico International School and Desert Willow Family School, suggest that Hodgin Elementary has the potential to improve. By identifying and addressing the root causes of its underperformance, the school may be able to implement targeted interventions and strategies to support student learning and achievement.

I went here for a year back in 3rd grade, and it was awful. Might have changed, might have changed. Still, I would double check to be sure this is where you wanted your kid to go. Close Quote
