Best Public Schools in Leeds, ME


Summary:

The city of Leeds, Maine has a single elementary school, Leeds Central School, which serves grades PK-6 and has a total enrollment of 191 students. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 52/Maine School Admin District 52.

Leeds Central School has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating over the past three years, dropping from 161 out of 228 Maine elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 248 out of 290 in 2022-2023. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is 15.7%, and 32.46% of its students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school may be serving a population with lower socioeconomic status. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.2 is a potential strength, as it may allow for more individualized attention and support for students.

While the student population at Leeds Central School is predominantly white (92.67%), the school does have some racial diversity, with small percentages of African American, Hispanic, and Native American students. Ensuring an inclusive and equitable learning environment for all students should be a priority for the school and district as they work to address the school's declining performance and other challenges.
