Support the Sale of Vacant Lot at Eastern & Alvarado to Cien Aguas International School!
Final supporters
We, the undersigned, encourage the Albuquerque Development Commission and the Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency to authorize the sale of the vacant lot at Eastern & Alvarado to Cien Aguas International School.
Cien Aguas is a dual language (Spanish-English) public charter school serving students in grades K-8. The school envisions an environmentally sustainable campus in the Southeast Heights, serving a diverse population with a curriculum that embraces an international perspective. This vacant lot would be the perfect location for Cien Aguas and, if realized, the relocation of the school to this area would provide much needed educational opportunities in Albuquerque's International District. The school is currently located at 2000 Randolph and has a proven record in dual language immersion education.
We understand that Cien Aguas will find interim uses for the property in collaboration with community organizations for the next 3-5 years while they secure financing to build their school campus. These uses, such as a community garden and possible playground, art exhibit, or market space, will hopefully help abate vandalism and dumping that are currently occurring on the lot.
With this understanding, we strongly encourage the Albuquerque Development Commission and the Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency to sell the property to Cien Aguas International School.

¡Apoye la venta del terreno baldío en la calle de Eastern y Alvarado para la escuela Internacional Cien Aguas!
Nosotros, los suscritos, pedimos a la Comisión de Desarrollo de Albuquerque y la Agencia de Desarrollo Metropolitano para autorizar la venta del terreno baldío de Eastern y Alvarado a la escuela internacional Cien Aguas.
Cien Aguas es una escuela pública de lenguaje dual
(Español-Inglés) que
sirve a estudiantes en los grados K-8. La escuela prevé
un campus sostenible con el medio ambiente en el sureste de la ciudad, sirviendo a una población
diversa con un plan de estudios que abarca una perspectiva internacional. Este lote
vacante sería el
lugar perfecto para Cien Aguas
y, de realizarse, el traslado de la
escuela a esta área proporcionaría mucho las
oportunidades educativas necesarias en el Distrito Internacional de Albuquerque. Actualmente,
la escuela está situada en
2000 Randolph y
tiene un historial probado en la
educación de inmersión en dos
idiomas.
Entendemos que Cien Aguas encontrará usos
provisionales para la propiedad en colaboración con organizaciones de la
comunidad para los próximos 3-5
años, mientras que asegura la financiación para construir su campus. Estos usos serían: un jardín comunitario
y posiblemente un patio de recreo, exposición
de arte, o un espacio para un mercado,
con el uso del espacio esperamos que no haya vandalismo y la tirada de basura en el espacio que es lo
que esta sucediendo actualmente en
el lote.
Con este entendimiento, le recomendamos
a la Comisión de Desarrollo de Albuquerque
y la Agencia de Desarrollo Metropolitano
de vender la propiedad a la escuela
internacional Cien Aguas.

Seeing this momentum grow confirms that our neighborhood truly wants a safe and productive future for the vacant lot at Eastern and Alvarado. My own children deserve a space that fosters learning instead of the current blight we have to walk past every single day.

I am a long-time South San Pedro Neighborhood resident, and I currently serve as the neighborhood association vice-president. I heartily support Cien Aguas' efforts to revitalize our neighborhood and welcome the addition of critical educational and cultural assests to the community.
Transforming a vacant lot into an active school has obvious advantages for the neighborhood and city: vacancy invites vandalism while occupancy indicates responsibilty.
I've visited this charter school and it is giving a solid education to its students. My judgement is based on 40 years as an elementary teacher. It will be a positive influence in the neighborhood of Eastern & Alvarado.
As a lifelong resident of ABQ, a child who grew up in this district, and a parent who would like to move back to this district, I would appreciate your consideration in selling this space to Cien Aguas. The community would be greatly served by having the school in this location.
As the director/principal I feel this is a very important opportunity for our long term growth and success. The school's presence would also serve to help participate in the revitalization of this neighborhood within the International District of Albuquerque.
My nephew attends this school and is doing great. It's would be a great addition to our area. Hope this goes through!t addition
We need this school built in this area! Please grant their sale! Thank you!

I live in the International District and I would be delighted to have a school with such high reputation be part of my community. There is no better way to continue to beautify the city than to create a school in an empy lot.
