ACE LEADERSHIP HIGH SCHOOL

ACE LEADERSHIP HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public charter high school with about 316 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 18 teachers, ACE LEADERSHIP HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

ACE LEADERSHIP HIGH SCHOOL, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a unique public charter school that reimagines the traditional high school experience through the lens of the architecture, construction, and engineering (ACE) industries. Rather than relying solely on standard classroom instruction, the school utilizes a "project-based learning" model. Students work in a studio-like environment where they solve real-world problems, collaborate with industry professionals, and engage in hands-on work that directly prepares them for both higher education and technical careers.

The school is defined by its strong emphasis on community, culture, and professional mentorship. By integrating professional skills—such as project management, design thinking, and technical literacy—into the core curriculum, ACE Leadership aims to bridge the gap between academic theory and practical application. With its central location in the Bellamah neighborhood, the school serves as a hub for students who thrive in non-traditional settings and are looking to graduate with a clear sense of purpose and a competitive edge in the modern workforce.
