Maine School Admin District 76


Summary:

Maine School Administrative District 76 is a small, rural school district that serves the Swans Island community, a remote island off the coast of Maine. The district has just one school, Swans Island Elementary School, which provides education for students in grades K-8.

Swans Island Elementary School has a very small enrollment of just 25 students, with a predominantly white student population and a relatively low-income student body, as indicated by the 20% free/reduced lunch rate. The school stands out for its exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 5.5, suggesting a high level of individual attention for students. However, the school also faces challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 32.1%, which is significantly above the state average.

Despite these challenges, Maine School Administrative District 76 has made significant improvements in the quality of education at Swans Island Elementary School over the past 15 years. The school has climbed from a 2-star to a 4-star rating on SchoolDigger, and now ranks 67th out of 290 Maine elementary schools, a remarkable achievement for such a small, isolated school. This progress suggests that the district and school are dedicated to providing a high-quality education to the students of Swans Island.
