Milford Public Schools


Summary:

Milford Public Schools is a small school district in Maine, with only one elementary school serving grades PK-8: Dr. Lewis S. Libby School. While the school has a predominantly white student population, it faces challenges such as a high chronic absenteeism rate and a significant portion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Dr. Lewis S. Libby School has seen a concerning decline in its state-wide ranking, dropping from 65th in 2021-2022 to 264th out of 290 Maine elementary schools in the current 2022-2023 school year, despite maintaining a 3-star rating in the previous two years. This suggests a potential decline in the school's performance or relative standing compared to other elementary schools in the state. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.4% is relatively high, which can negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes.

On a positive note, the school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 9.6, indicating that students may receive more individualized attention and support. However, the high percentage of students (42.96%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may require additional resources and support to ensure these students have access to the necessary educational opportunities.
