Longfellow Elementary's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Science, is generally lower than the Albuquerque and New Mexico state averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, Longfellow's proficiency rates were 30% in ELA, 20% in Mathematics, and 31% in Science, compared to Albuquerque's 39%, 24%, and 35%, respectively, and the state's 39%, 25%, and 36%.

Longfellow Elementary faces some challenges, including a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's consistent academic performance, coupled with its low student-teacher ratio, suggests that it could benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the specific needs of its student population and potentially learn from the practices of higher-performing nearby schools.
