Maine School Admin District 27

Maine School Admin District 27 is home to three schools: Fort Kent Elementary School, Fort Kent Community High School, and Valley Rivers Middle School. These schools serve students from the Fort Kent area and have shown a mix of strengths and areas for improvement.

Fort Kent Community High School stands out with its impressive 100% four-year graduation rate and a ranking in the top third of Maine high schools. In contrast, Valley Rivers Middle School has maintained a consistently strong performance, ranking in the top third of Maine middle schools, and boasts a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9, which may contribute to more personalized attention for students.

However, the data also reveals some concerns, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate at Fort Kent Community High School, which is significantly higher than the other two schools. Additionally, the differences in free/reduced lunch rates suggest varying levels of economic challenges faced by the student populations, which may impact educational outcomes and resource needs across the Maine School Admin District 27.
