Summary

Academy For Technology & Classics is a 398-student school serving grades 7–12 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and it ranks among the strongest public high schools in its area. In 2025–2026 it placed 26th of 132 high schools statewide — 4 stars, or the 80th percentile — even though its district, Santa Fe Public Schools, ranks 56th of 87 with 2 stars. That contrast suggests the school is producing results well above what its district context alone would predict.

Among nearby schools, only Mandela International Magnet (Mims) (6th of 132) consistently outperforms it. ATC outranks The Masters Program (46th), Santa Fe High (61st), Monte Del Sol Charter (78th), Tierra Encantada Charter School (113th), Early College Opportunities (116th), and Capital High (128th). Its reported graduation rate of 97.4% in 2023–2024 far exceeds the district's 83.1% and the state's 78.0%. In 2025–2026, all-grade proficiency was 58.37% in Language Arts, 31.1% in Mathematics, and 47.79% in Science — above district and state averages in every subject. Eleventh-grade science (57.38%) and math (32.26%) are especially strong; the math figure is more than double the state's 12.72%.

Some softening is visible: all-grade Language Arts slipped from 70% in 2023–2024 to 58.37% in 2025–2026, and Science eased from 52% in 2022–2023 to 47.79%. Even so, results remain above district and state averages. The school also ranks highly for how well it serves low-income students (18th of 157 in 2022–2023) and Special Education students (4th of 38 in 2022–2023). About 34.85% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2023–2024, lower than several nearby schools, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 14.4, which is mid-range locally. A few nearby schools report math only as bounds such as "under 20%" or "under 5%," and some 2024–2025 school-level figures are unavailable — which means unknown, not weak.
