Cibola High School (CHS) is a public Senior high school located in northwest Albuquerque, New Mexico in the Albuquerque Public Schools District. Due to rapid population growth in the surrounding area, Cibola was the largest high school in New Mexico as of 2006 and was considered overcrowded with over 3,200 students and 62 portable classrooms. School enrollment was reduced in 2007 with the opening of nearby Volcano Vista High School. In 2008, CHS underwent a massive remodel and expansion of the main building. The current enrollment stands at 2,197.
The NMPED (New Mexico Public Education department) replaced the "No child left behind act" and AYP testing with a new school grading formula, which took effect for the 2010-2011 school years. The grade is calculated using many forms of testing, and includes graduation rates.
Cibola competes in the New Mexico Activities Association (NMAA), as a class 6A school in District 1. In 2014, the NMAA realigned the state's schools in to six classifications and adjusted district boundaries. In addition to Cibola High School, the schools in District 1-6A include: V. Sue Cleveland High School, Volcano Vista High School, Rio Rancho High School and Santa Fe High School.
