Summary:

Zip code 87105 in Albuquerque contains 23 schools — 14 elementary, 4 middle, 4 high, and 1 alternative — serving roughly 7,634 students, nearly all of them within Albuquerque Public Schools, and 18 of the 23 report free or reduced lunch rates at or above 99%.

There is one clear academic standout. Albuquerque Collegiate Charter School is the only school here that beats the state in both ELA (60.61% vs 43.34%) and math (36.36% vs 25.54%), ranking 81 of 346 statewide with 4 stars. South Valley Academy has the area's best graduation rate at 92.5% versus the state's 80.6%, though its 11th grade ELA (26.51%) and math (under 10%) lag state levels. Barcelona Elementary climbed from the bottom of state rankings to the 32nd percentile with science above state, while Solare Collegiate Charter School sits essentially at state math (25% vs 25.54%) but ranks 306 of 346.

Math is the area's systemic weakness. Rio Grande High, the largest school at 1,475 students, posts 3.64% math, 15.61% science, and a 74.1% graduation rate. Navajo Elementary ranks 346 of 346, and Mountain View Elementary, Polk Middle, Ernie Pyle Middle, Lavaland Elementary, and Atrisco Elementary all report very low proficiency. Area averages — ELA about 25.4%, math about 11.9%, science about 22.3%, and graduation about 69.0% — fall well below district and state figures, and suppressed scores at New America School, School On Wheels High School, and Isleta Elementary School limit full comparisons.
