Best Public Schools in Charlotte, ME

Summary:

The city of Charlotte, Maine has a single public elementary school, Charlotte Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 23 students. The school has seen gradual improvements in its state-wide ranking over the years, rising from a 1-star rating in 2008-2009 to a 3-star rating in the most recent 2022-2023 school year, ranking 97 out of 290 Maine elementary schools. However, the school faces significant challenges, including a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 66.6% and a relatively high percentage of students (39.13%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating socioeconomic disadvantages.

Despite its small size, Charlotte Elementary School has a low student-teacher ratio of 5.3, which could be a potential strength in providing more individualized attention and support for students. The school's student population is predominantly white, with 95.65% of students identifying as such and a small percentage (4.35%) identifying as two or more races.

Overall, Charlotte Public Schools face a unique set of challenges and opportunities as a small, rural school district with a single elementary school. The gradual improvement in the school's state-wide ranking suggests that the district is making progress, but the high chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic factors indicate the need for targeted strategies to address these issues and support the success of all students in the community.
