Pittston-Randolph Consolidated School

Summary:

Pittston-Randolph Consolidated School is a small elementary school serving around 190 students in grades K-5 in the town of Pittston, Maine. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 11/Maine School Admin District 11, which is ranked 107 out of 177 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pittston-Randolph Consolidated School has some notable strengths, including outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. The school also effectively supports its population of low-socioeconomic status students, ranking 3rd out of 82 Maine elementary schools in this category in 2018-2019. However, the school faces challenges, such as fluctuating academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and relatively low Science proficiency compared to nearby schools like Laura E Richards School and Whitefield Elementary School.

One interesting finding is the school's racial makeup, which has a significantly higher percentage of white students (95.79%) compared to nearby schools that have more diverse student populations. Additionally, with its small size, Pittston-Randolph Consolidated School may be able to provide more personalized attention and support to its students, which could contribute to its strengths in serving low-socioeconomic status learners. Overall, the school has a mix of positive and concerning factors that parents should consider when evaluating educational options in the area.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
