The district acquired its first school by taking over the former Albuquerque Academy at Central and Edith, and classes began that fall. Primary schools were established in each of the city's four political wards in the early 1890s, and a new Central School for the upper grades opened in 1900.<ref>{{cite web | title=U.S. Territorial Education, 1846–1912 | url=http://albuqhistsoc.org/SecondSite/pkfiles/pk117territoreducat.htm | publisher=Albuquerque Historical Society | access-date=July 25, 2015}}</ref> In 1911, the district appointed superintendent John Milne, who oversaw the school system until 1956 and was credited with much of its success.<ref name=statehood>{{cite web | title=U.S. Statehood Education, 1912-1945 | url=http://albuqhistsoc.org/SecondSite/pkfiles/pk118stathoodeducat.htm | publisher=Albuquerque Historical Society | access-date=July 25, 2015}}</ref>
With the city continuing to grow rapidly, a new high school building was constructed in 1914. Critics complained that the school was too large and would never reach its capacity of 500 students, but this proved not to be the case as a second building was required just 13 years later and the campus had grown to five buildings by 1940. In 1923 the district added two junior high schools, Washington and Lincoln, and two elementary schools at the expanding fringes of the city, John Marshall in the south and University Heights in the east.<ref name=statehood/> The outdated old ward schools were phased out between 1927 and 1937, to be replaced by Longfellow, Eugene Field, Coronado, and Lew Wallace elementary schools, respectively. The district continued to expand with the city's growth to the east, adding Monte Vista Elementary in 1931, Jefferson Junior High in 1938, and Bandelier Elementary in 1939. Albuquerque's population exploded in the postwar era, and APS had to add new schools continuously to keep up, including the city's second high school, Highland, in 1949. APS also took over the Bernalillo County public school system that same year, bringing in schools in the older rural communities along the Rio Grande valley and in the mountains. In 1956 the district boasted 39,000 students and 67 schools, the two most distant of which were {{convert|52|mi}} apart.<ref name=children>{{cite news | title=39,000 Children Count Days Again Until School Opens | url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/2971424/albuquerque_journal/ | work=Albuquerque Journal | date=August 19, 1956 | page=19 | via=Newspapers.com | access-date=August 8, 2015}}</ref> Declining enrollments saw several inner-city schools closed in the 1970s, and Albuquerque High moved to a new location farther from Downtown. Nevertheless, the district as a whole continued to grow, and more recent demographic shifts have seen Coronado and Lew Wallace elementary schools reopen. In 1994, five schools in the suburb of Rio Rancho were transferred to the new Rio Rancho Public Schools district.<ref>{{cite news |title=With almost 90,000 students, APS is the 25th largest district in the U.S.A. |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/121039070/albuquerque-journal/ |access-date=March 17, 2023 |work=Albuquerque Journal |date=July 31, 1994 |via=Newspapers.com}}</ref> In 2010, APS recorded nearly 100,000 students.
== Schools == As of 2023, APS operates 88 elementary schools (grades K–5), 5 grades K-8 schools, 28 middle schools (grades 6–8), 20 high schools (grades 9–12), 31 charter schools (grades vary).
