The number of students who reported having a sense of purpose fell by 27%. The number reporting a caring, encouraging school climate (26%) remained unchanged over the same 10 year period. The percent of teens who are neither working nor going to school has been stable over the last 3 years.

Albuquerque Public School students are virtually equal to the national average in the number of Developmental Assets they possess, for students grades 6-12. APS students initially lag behind the national average by about 3%, by the time they reach the 12th grade Albuquerque students are equal to the national average in the number of assets they possess. Albuquerque's youth have a higher rate of not attending school and not working than four of five Southwest peer cities.
CITIZEN PERCEPTION:
In 2011, Albuquerque citizens ranked this desired condition 10th of 57 surveyed conditions in importance, while simultaneously being a condition with some of the least progress having been made. It ranked 51st in progress.
