Jefferson Public Schools


Summary:

Jefferson Public Schools is a small school district in Maine, consisting of a single elementary school, Jefferson Village School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 235 students. While the school has performed moderately well in recent years, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, it faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate and a predominantly white student population, which may indicate a lack of racial and ethnic diversity.

Academically, Jefferson Village School has seen fluctuations in its performance, with a 2-star rating in 2021-2022 and a 3-star rating in 2022-2023. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 11.1 is relatively low, suggesting a favorable learning environment. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population, 39.57%, receives free or reduced-price lunch, indicating economic challenges faced by the school community.

Overall, Jefferson Public Schools appears to be a stable district with a focus on providing a comprehensive educational experience for its students. However, the district may want to consider addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and promoting greater racial and ethnic diversity within the school community. By addressing these areas, the district can work to ensure that all students have access to a high-quality education and the support they need to succeed.
