Albuquerque Schools Close Amid Enrollment Drop | Santa Fe News
Description
Albuquerque is facing a school crisis as three institutions—Equip Academy, Voz Collegiate Preparatory Charter School, Holy Ghost Catholic School, and Holy Cross Catholic School—shut down this fall, all citing plummeting enrollment. With Albuquerque Public Schools losing over 22,000 students in a decade, the city mirrors a national trend driven by falling birth rates and shifting demographics. As fixed costs remain, declining student numbers squeeze budgets, forcing painful closures—even for long-standing private schools. This isn’t just about education; it’s a warning sign of deeper societal shifts reshaping communities nationwide.
