School Overview

Albuquerque Collegiate Charter School (ACCS) is a tuition-free, public charter school serving students in grades K–5. Located in downtown Albuquerque, the school is founded on the belief that every child, regardless of their background or zip code, deserves access to a high-quality education that prepares them for success in college and beyond. ACCS utilizes a rigorous academic model characterized by a longer school day, extended school year, and a focus on data-driven instruction to ensure students reach grade-level proficiency in core subjects like literacy and mathematics.

Beyond academics, the school places a heavy emphasis on fostering a strong community culture built on shared values and character development. By maintaining a structured and supportive learning environment, ACCS aims to close the achievement gap for students in the Albuquerque area. The school actively engages families in the educational process, positioning itself as a community hub that balances high academic expectations with the necessary social-emotional support to help young students thrive throughout their elementary years.
