History
editNew Mexico Academy for the Media Arts was founded in 2008 then known as Media Arts Collaborative Charter School in a building on Central multiple people such as Marvin H. Gladstone (~1928-2019). [7] The school eventually expanded into another building formerly inhabited by Bank of America in July of 2024. [8]

Heads of school
editFacilities
editThe school sits on a gated campus in the southeastern part of the city. It is divided into two buildings, the main building, and then the CTE building. The school's main building is used for students to learn state-mandated material, while the CTE building is used for career technical education related activities such as filmmaking, game development, web design, photography, art, graphic design, etc.
Sensory Room
editA sensory room was planned and orchestrated to be installed into a portable classroom during the 2023-24 school year thanks to a grant funded by the New Mexico Department of Education, but once the grant had not been received by Media Arts before the June 30th deadline, the sensory room project was discontinued. The sensory room was also a baseline for a scrapped documentary series created by a group of students and teachers documenting mental health issues in the youth population. Funding for the documentary was provided by Pamelya Herndon but once the sensory room project was canceled, the documentary was also scrapped. Students had interviewed New Mexico Legislators in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as well as any other local politicians and experts regarding the teen mental health crisis and more. The documentary had not begun editing before the sensory room was canceled. The sensory room may eventually be added to the school. [14]
