Summary

Thrive Community School is a standalone K–8 school serving 305 students at 7300 Old Santa Fe Trail in southeast Santa Fe, New Mexico, and it operates as its own single-school district — unlike every nearby school, all of which belong to Santa Fe Public Schools.

In 2025–2026, 51.78% of Thrive students were proficient in English language arts (state 44.66%, Santa Fe Public Schools 42.65%) and 42.37% in science (state 33.62%, district 29.53%), while math came in at 25.89% — about level with the neighboring district (25.65%) and just under the state (27.85%). Among the nine nearby elementary schools, that places Thrive 3rd of 10 in reading and 6th of 10 in math: ahead of Salazar Elementary and Ramirez Thomas Elementary, close to E.J. Martinez Elementary and Chaparral Elementary, and behind Wood-Gormley Elementary, Acequia Madre Elementary, Atalaya Elementary, and Francis X. Nava Elementary. Thrive's statewide rank slipped from the 80th percentile (4 stars) in 2024–2025 to the 47th (2 stars) in 2025–2026, but actual proficiency dipped only modestly, and the multi-year reading trend is genuinely upward.

Three things stand out for families. First, Thrive is the only K–8 option in this comparison group — every neighbor ends at grade 6 or earlier — and its 7th grade is its strongest grade-level result, with 68.18% proficient in reading and 50% in math (state 46.63% and 26.93%). Second, early-grades math is the clear weak spot: 5th grade math is 17.07% against a 33.85% state rate, and 8th grade math is suppressed by the state, so it cannot be assessed from this data. Third, the school's low-income students rank in the 88th percentile statewide. With a 98.03% free/reduced-lunch rate — effectively universal — and 14.5 students per teacher, Thrive serves a high-poverty population, and its highest-need students outperform those at most New Mexico schools.
