Best Public Schools in Blue Hill, ME

Summary:

The city of Blue Hill, Maine is home to a single public elementary school, the Blue Hill Consolidated School, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 243 students. The school is part of the Blue Hill Public Schools district, which is ranked 55 out of 177 districts in the state of Maine and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its small size and rural location, the Blue Hill Consolidated School has maintained a strong ranking among Maine elementary schools over the past 3 years, placing in the top third of schools statewide. However, the school's student body is overwhelmingly white, with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.9%, which is significantly higher than the state average and may be an area of concern.

On a positive note, the school has a low student-teacher ratio of 9 to 1, suggesting relatively small class sizes and a more personalized learning environment for students. The school also has a moderate level of economic disadvantage, with 16.05% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that the school may require additional support and resources to address the needs of its student population.
