Summary:

The 87110 zip code area of Albuquerque, New Mexico is home to three high schools: Sandia High, Freedom High, and New Futures High School. While the schools share a geographic location, their performance and student populations vary significantly.

Sandia High stands out as the top-performing school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 50 high schools in Albuquerque and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts higher proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in math, and a 4-year graduation rate of 78%. In contrast, Freedom High and New Futures High School have struggled to maintain consistent high rankings and performance metrics, with lower test scores and smaller student populations.

Across all three schools, the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, around 102-108%, suggest that the student population in this zip code area faces significant socioeconomic challenges. The student-teacher ratios also vary widely, with New Futures High School having the lowest ratio at 4.5, followed by Freedom High at 7.9 and Sandia High at 16.1. These differences may reflect the schools' resource allocation and ability to provide individualized attention to their students.
