Inez Elementary

Summary:

Inez Elementary is a public elementary school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serving 306 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Albuquerque school district, which is ranked 89 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Inez Elementary's performance on standardized tests is generally below the Albuquerque and New Mexico state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with only 36% proficiency in English Language Arts, 22% in Mathematics, and 34% in Science, compared to the state averages of 39% in all three subjects. The school's performance has been declining over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 87th out of 410 elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 222nd out of 433 in 2023-2024. However, Inez Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.7 to 12.2 students per teacher, and a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating that all of its students come from low-income families.

Inez Elementary's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White and low-income students performing relatively better than Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students. This suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing the specific needs of its underperforming subgroups to improve overall academic outcomes. Compared to nearby schools, such as the higher-performing Alice King Community School, Inez Elementary's performance is generally lower, particularly in the areas of Mathematics and Science.

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.
