Best Public Schools in Salem Twp, ME

Summary:

The city of Salem Twp, Maine has only one public high school, Mt Abram Regional High School, which serves grades 9-12 and has a total enrollment of 213 students. The school's student population is predominantly white (92.49%), with small percentages of Hispanic students and students of two or more races. Mt Abram Regional High School has seen fluctuating state-wide rankings over the years, ranging from 101st out of 114 high schools in 2018-2019 to 59th out of 123 high schools in the most recent 2022-2023 school year, suggesting inconsistent performance.

One notable concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 47.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, over one-third of the student population (36.15%) receives free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that the school may face challenges related to socioeconomic factors that can influence educational outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio of 12.9 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in supporting student learning.

Overall, Regional School Unit 58/Maine School Admin District 58, which oversees Mt Abram Regional High School, faces the challenge of addressing the school's high chronic absenteeism and supporting students from low-income households to improve academic performance and outcomes for the community.
