Best High Schools in Zip Code 87107

ZIP code 87107 contains six high schools serving grades 6 through 12, ranging from one large comprehensive campus to small charter, alternative, and juvenile-justice settings, with a combined listed enrollment of 1,671 students. Four are part of Albuquerque Public Schools, one belongs to Juvenile Justice, and one is its own Sequoyah district. Because these schools differ so widely in size, grades served, and mission, families are best served by comparing each school against others of its own type rather than against a single ZIP-wide average.

Digital Arts And Technology Academy (319 students, grades 7–12) shows the strongest current profile in the area: the only 4-star rating here, a rank of 33 of 132, or 75th percentile, for 2025–26, and an 84.8% graduation rate that is above both the district's 75.6% and the state's 80.6%. Its language arts and science results also exceed district and state marks, though math does not. Valley High is by far the largest, with 962 students — roughly 57.6% of the ZIP's listed enrollment — and a 96.15% free/reduced lunch rate. Its 73.7% graduation rate sits below district and state, and its reported proficiency is lower as well, even though its rank has improved from 1 star to 2 stars.

Math is the weakest subject at the two schools with usable 2025–26 test data: Valley at 10.87% and Digital Arts at 14.41%, compared with district 25.74% and state 25.54%. Data elsewhere is thin. Gordon Bernell Charter (175 students, 22.7% graduation rate) and Archer Academy Of Accelerated Learning (139 students, 60.4%) have all 2025–26 test scores suppressed, while Foothill High School (57 students) and Sequoyah (19 students) list no 2024–25 school-level graduation rates, only older 2020–21 figures of 6.0% and 7.3%.
