The district as a whole is underperforming, ranked 138 out of 177 districts in the state and rated just 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger. However, a few schools within the district stand out.

Etna-Dixmont School and Sebasticook Valley Elementary School are the top-performing elementary schools in the district, ranked 104 and 109 out of 290 Maine elementary schools, respectively. These schools have the lowest student-teacher ratios and relatively low chronic absenteeism rates compared to the other schools in the district.

The disparities within the Regional School Unit 19 district are stark, suggesting significant differences in the quality of education and resources available to students. The high chronic absenteeism rates and socioeconomic challenges faced by the district's population may be contributing factors to the overall underperformance. Addressing these issues through targeted interventions and resource allocation could help improve the educational outcomes for all students in the district.
