Adobe Acres Elementary

Summary:

Adobe Acres Elementary is a public elementary school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serving 306 students in grades PK-5. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (95.75%) and faces significant academic challenges, consistently underperforming the state and district averages in proficiency rates for Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.2, Adobe Acres Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of New Mexico elementary schools for the past decade, with no significant improvement in its academic performance or school ranking. The school struggles to support its student subgroups, with low rankings for Female, Male, Hispanic, White, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students compared to other New Mexico elementary schools. Interestingly, nearby schools like Rio Grande Academy Of Fine Arts and Atrisco Elementary that serve similar student populations demonstrate that high-performing schools are possible in the same geographic area.

The persistent challenges at Adobe Acres Elementary suggest a need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems. By learning from and collaborating with higher-performing schools in the area, Adobe Acres Elementary may have opportunities to improve its academic outcomes and better serve its predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
