Easton Public Schools

The Easton Public Schools district in Maine consists of two schools: Easton Elementary School and Easton Junior-Senior High School. Easton Elementary School stands out as a top-performing school, ranking in the top 14% of Maine elementary schools and maintaining a strong 4-star rating. In contrast, Easton Junior-Senior High School has shown improvement but still has room for further progress, with a 3-star rating and a 100% four-year graduation rate.

Demographically, both schools have a predominantly white student population, with Easton Elementary School having a slightly more diverse student body. However, both schools face challenges related to chronic absenteeism and high rates of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by their free and reduced lunch rates. These socioeconomic factors may contribute to the higher chronic absenteeism rates observed, particularly at Easton Elementary School.

Overall, the Easton Public Schools district presents a mixed picture, with a standout elementary school and a junior-senior high school that is making progress but still has room for improvement. Addressing the challenges related to chronic absenteeism and supporting students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds may be key focus areas for the district to further enhance the educational outcomes for all students.
