Summary

School Of Dreams Academy is an alternative public charter school located in Los Lunas, New Mexico, serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 555 students. The school has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a student population from low-income backgrounds.

While School Of Dreams Academy has seen a steady increase in its four-year graduation rate, from 67.8% in 2022-2023 to 78.6% in 2023-2024, the graduation rate is still below the state average. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally lower than the state average across various subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (37.87%) and Mathematics (20.12%) in 2024-2025 significantly below the state averages (44.19% and 26.81%, respectively). The school's extremely high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 100% to 100.54% in the past three school years, suggests that the school serves a student population facing significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance gaps.

When compared to the nearby Mission Achievement And Success schools, School Of Dreams Academy generally performs worse on standardized tests, particularly in Mathematics. For example, in 2024-2025, the proficiency rate in Mathematics for all grades at School Of Dreams Academy is 20.12%, while the rates for Mission Achievement And Success 1.0 and Mission Achievement And Success 2.0 are 36.46% and 33.5%, respectively.
