Wells-Ogunquit Central School District


Summary:

The Wells-Ogunquit Central School District in Maine is home to three schools: Wells Elementary School, Wells Junior High School, and Wells High School. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with both the elementary and junior high schools consistently ranking among the top schools in the state.

Among the standout schools, Wells Elementary School shines, ranking 23rd out of 290 Maine elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.0% is a testament to its engaged student body. Meanwhile, Wells Junior High School also impresses, ranking 18th out of 96 Maine middle schools and maintaining a 4-star rating. The junior high school's slightly lower student-teacher ratio of 11.3 may contribute to its academic success.

While the district's schools generally perform well, there are some areas for improvement. The higher chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2% at Wells High School suggests that there may be unique challenges at the high school level. Additionally, the district's predominantly white student population, with relatively small percentages of other racial groups, indicates a need to explore ways to foster greater diversity and inclusion within the schools.
