Summary:
Regional School Unit 42/Maine School Admin District 42 contains a single high school, Central Aroostook Junior-Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12 and has a total enrollment of 172 students. The school stands out for its relatively homogeneous student population, with 95.93% of students identifying as White, which is higher than the state average. While the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, it currently ranks 46th out of 123 Maine high schools and has a 4-year graduation rate of 85.7%, above the state average.
Academically, Central Aroostook Junior-Senior High School has a mixed performance. Its ELA proficiency rate of 62.07% is above the district average, but its Math and Science proficiency rates of 40% and 48.21%, respectively, are below both the district and state averages. The school also faces a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which could be a contributing factor to its academic challenges. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 8.6 to 1 suggests that students may have access to more individualized attention and support.
Overall, Regional School Unit 42/Maine School Admin District 42 has a single high school that demonstrates both strengths and areas for improvement. While the school's graduation rate and student-teacher ratio are positive indicators, its lack of racial diversity and inconsistent academic performance suggest that further analysis and targeted interventions may be needed to address these concerns and improve the overall quality of education for students in the district.
