Best Public Schools in Aurora, ME


Summary:

The city of Aurora, Maine has only one school, the Airline Community School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 36 students. The school is part of the Airline Central School District, which is ranked 173 out of 177 districts in the state of Maine and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The Airline Community School has seen a significant decline in its performance over the past 15 years, dropping from a 3-star rating to a 0-star rating and falling from the 84th to the 278th rank among Maine elementary schools. This concerning trend may be linked to the school's high percentage of students (61.11%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population. Additionally, the school's student population is overwhelmingly white (97.22%), raising questions about equity and inclusion within the school.

Despite these challenges, the Airline Community School has a very low chronic absenteeism rate of 0.0% and a small student-teacher ratio of 6.7, suggesting a potentially more individualized learning environment. However, the school's small size, with only 36 students enrolled, may present unique challenges in terms of program offerings and access to specialized resources. Overall, the analysis of the Airline Community School highlights the need for further investigation and support to address the factors contributing to the school's declining performance and the educational needs of its student population.
