The school has maintained a strong statewide ranking, consistently placing in the top quartile of Maine elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the student population is predominantly White, with a small percentage of African American and Asian students, which is less diverse than the nearby Van Buren Elementary School and Fort Kent Elementary School.

The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Dr Levesque Elementary School is lower than the nearby Van Buren Elementary School, which had a 100% free and reduced lunch rate in 2022-2023, suggesting that Dr Levesque Elementary School may serve a more affluent student population. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.2 to 13.3 over the past three school years, which is lower than the nearby Van Buren Elementary School and Fort Kent Elementary School. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has fluctuated significantly, ranging from 16.6% to 33%, which is an area that the school may want to investigate further.

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.
