Summary

Hubert H Humphrey Elementary is a PK–5 school with 465 students in Albuquerque, New Mexico, part of Albuquerque Public Schools. It stands out sharply from its district: while the district ranks 55th of 87 in New Mexico at the 37th percentile with 2 stars, Hubert H Humphrey Elementary is a 5-star school ranked 5th of 346 elementary schools statewide in 2025–2026, in the 99th percentile. That excellence is consistent — the school has earned 5 stars every year in the available history and never ranked below 12th statewide, including #1 in 2017–2018.

In 2025–2026, 81.4% of students were proficient in Language Arts, 64.2% in Math, and 78.21% in 5th-grade Science — roughly two to two-and-a-half times district and state averages. Nearby S. Y. Jackson Elementary (#10), Georgia O'Keeffe Elementary (#12), New Mexico International School (#20), Dennis Chavez Elementary (#27), John Baker Elementary (#40) and Osuna Elementary (#51) also beat district and state averages, while Mitchell Elementary (#169), Sombra Del Monte Elementary (#205) and Arroyo Del Oso Elementary (#213) rank much lower. Altura Preparatory School is the only nearby school ranked higher, at #1 statewide. Results are also strong across student groups — #1 of 273 statewide for Hispanic students, #3 of 304 for White students, #6 of 256 for low-income students, #3 of 251 for male and #14 of 252 for female students — with strong English Language Learner and Special Education results in the years shown.

Notably, the school's 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio of 14.5 is higher than most nearby district schools (Mitchell 11.1, Sombra Del Monte 11.0, Dennis Chavez 11.5, Arroyo Del Oso 11.9), yet results remain top-tier. Reported free/reduced lunch rates swung from 14.58% and 37.55% to 99.57% in 2024–2025, a pattern many nearby district schools share and likely a reporting change rather than a real shift. Math is the clearest growth area: Language Arts proficiency (81.4%) is about 17 points above Math (64.2%), and 4th-grade Math (55.91%) is the lowest grade-level result — still more than double the state average.
