Sandoval Academy Of Bilingual Education

Summary:

Sandoval Academy Of Bilingual Education is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, with a diverse student population that is majority Hispanic (84.21% in 2022-2023) and a relatively small student body of 228 students. The school is part of the Rio Rancho Public Schools district, which is ranked 58 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sandoval Academy outperforms the state average in Language Arts proficiency, with 45% of students proficient or better compared to the state's 38% in 2022-2023. However, the school underperforms the state average in Mathematics (19% vs. 24%) and Science (24% vs. 34%) proficiency. The school's performance on Language Arts proficiency is particularly strong in 3rd, 5th, and 8th grades, where it exceeds the state averages. Interestingly, the school's male students outperform their female counterparts, and its Hispanic students perform better than the state average, ranking 181 out of 395 New Mexico elementary schools in 2022-2023, while its White students rank lower, at 236 out of 413.

Despite having a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (75.88% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023), Sandoval Academy's low-income students perform relatively well, ranking 191 out of 426 New Mexico elementary schools in 2022-2023. The school's focus on bilingual education and its relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.3 to 16.2 over the past three school years, may contribute to its academic performance. Compared to nearby schools, Sandoval Academy generally outperforms Algodones Elementary, but some other nearby schools, such as Enchanted Hills Elementary and Vista Grande Elementary, have higher overall academic performance and rankings.

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.
