District-Level NCES Analysis
Juvenile Justice operates 2 public schools serving 55 students, placing it among the smallest districts in New Mexico. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Bernalillo County.
. Demographically, the student body averages 76.3% Hispanic or Latino, 10.7% White, 6.5% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Foothill High School, enrolling 57 students (63% of the district's total enrollment).
Foothill High School accounts for 63.3% of all Juvenile Justice student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Juvenile Justice a distant remainder — means Juvenile Justice-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Juvenile Justice has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 87.6% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is a supermajority of the population — well past the 75% concentration-grant threshold that unlocks extra funding on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
