Summary:
The Boothbay-Boothbay Hbr Central School District in Maine is home to a single high school, Boothbay Region High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly white student population, with some racial diversity, and faces challenges in academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates.
Boothbay Region High School has an enrollment of 179 students, with a student-teacher ratio of 9.3 to 1. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 86.9% is slightly below the state average. Academically, the school's performance is mixed, with 52.63% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 51.28% in Mathematics, and 31.58% in Science, compared to state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 31.6% is significantly higher than the state average, which may be contributing to the school's declining academic performance over the past few years.
Socioeconomic factors also play a role, with 31.28% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and providing targeted support for students from diverse backgrounds and lower-income families could be key priorities for the school and the district to improve student outcomes and overall school performance.
