About Cross of Hope School
A Christ-centered community where every child is known, nurtured, and inspired
Cross of Hope School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a Christ-centered community where children are known, nurtured, and inspired to grow in both faith and learning. With intentionally small class sizes and state-licensed teachers, we provide the individual attention every child deserves while maintaining high academic standards.
Our research-based curriculum is enriched by weekly specialty classes in music, art, library, physical education, and computer science. We also provide 1:1 Chromebook laptops and purposeful technology integration to prepare students for success in today’s digital world.
More than just a school, Cross of Hope is a family where parents, teachers, and students work together through volunteering, school events, and outreach opportunities to strengthen our community and create lasting memories.
