Summary

Susie Rayos Marmon Elementary is a PK–5 school with 507 students at 1800 72nd St NW on Albuquerque's west side, part of Albuquerque Public Schools, the state's largest district. Nearly every student comes from a low-income family — free/reduced lunch was reported at 100% in 2024-25 — and staffing has become more favorable in recent years, with the student–teacher ratio improving from 15.0 in 2022-23 to 11.7 in 2024-25.

Academically, the school sits at the very bottom of New Mexico's elementary rankings: 338th of 346 schools in 2025-26, the 2nd percentile with 0 stars, and its lowest placing in a decade. Proficiency is 28.17% in English language arts, 8.06% in math, and 15.79% in fifth-grade science, all well below district and state averages. Math is the sharpest weakness — the school's proficiency is roughly 29% of the district rate, and only about 29% of its own ELA rate, compared with a statewide pattern of about 62%. Math is under 10% in both third and fourth grade and 9.09% in fifth.

Comparisons matter here. Several nearby schools with nearly identical poverty rates post much stronger results, including Chaparral Elementary (ELA 39.27%, math 18.32%), Tres Volcanes Community Collaborative School (42.22% / 24.50%), Reginald Chavez Elementary (33.72% / 19.77%), and Christine Duncan Heritage Academy (36.07% / 19.22%). Horizon Academy West, a similar-size PK–5 school about a mile away, reports 63.18% ELA and 60.00% math with a higher student–teacher ratio of 17.0. Meanwhile, the school's improved staffing has not yet shown up in results. Every student group measured in 2025-26 ranks near the bottom of its statewide comparison group, and no grade level or subject offers an obvious bright spot to build on.
