Summary

Digital Arts And Technology Academy (DATA) is a public school at 1011 Lamberton NE in Albuquerque, NM, serving grades 7–12 with 319 students as part of Albuquerque Public Schools. While the district itself ranks 55th of 87 statewide with 2 stars, DATA's own recent performance is noticeably stronger: in 2025–2026 it ranked 33rd of 132 New Mexico high schools (75th percentile, 4 stars), its best recent showing after 45th of 131 in 2024–2025 and 72nd of 172 in 2023–2024.

Graduation outcomes are a bright spot. DATA's 2024–2025 graduation rate was 84.8%, above the district's 75.6% and the state's 80.6%. Among nearby schools, only Early College Academy (90.6%) did better, and that school ranks 4th of 132 statewide — a selective benchmark rather than a typical comparison. DATA also came in ahead of Ace Leadership High School (82.4%), Albuquerque High (77.1%), Valley High (73.7%), Archer Academy Of Accelerated Learning (60.4%), and Gordon Bernell Charter (22.7%). About 40.75% of students were eligible for free or reduced lunch, and the student-teacher ratio was 13.4.

Academically, the pattern is clear: language arts and science are strengths, math is the area to watch. DATA's all-grades language arts was 52.68% and science 47.73%, both well above district and state, while all-grades math was 14.41%, below both. Notably, the school appears effective with low-income students, whose subgroup earned 4 stars and ranked 18th of 89 in 2025–2026. Keep in mind that some results, including 7th-grade math, are state-suppressed — those are unknown, not zero.
