Edmunds Consolidated School

Q: Is Edmunds Consolidated School a good school?

Edmunds Consolidated School ranks 46 th of 290 Maine elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Edmunds Consolidated School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the rural community of Edmunds Twp, Maine. With just 71 students, the school stands out for its strong academic performance, outpacing the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. However, the school also faces challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate and a significant proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Compared to nearby schools, Pembroke Elementary School and Charlotte Elementary School have stronger academic performance, while schools like Eastport Elementary School and Fort O'Brien School face higher chronic absenteeism and lower proficiency rates. Edmunds Consolidated School's low student-teacher ratio of 8.4 suggests that students may receive more individualized attention, but the school's high proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, at 50.7%, indicates that additional support may be needed.

Despite these challenges, Edmunds Consolidated School has shown improvement over time, rising from a 0-star rating in 2008-2009 to a 4-star rating in the 2022-2023 school year and ranking 46 out of 290 Maine elementary schools. This progress reflects the school's commitment to providing a quality education for its students, even in the face of the unique demographic and economic factors that shape the community it serves as part of the Education in Unorganized Terr district.

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.
