Summary:

The 04022 zip code area is home to a single standout elementary school, Brownfield Denmark Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-4. This school has seen a dramatic improvement in its academic performance, moving from a 1-star rating in 2018-2019 to a prestigious 5-star rating in 2022-2023, ranking 6th out of 290 Maine elementary schools.

Brownfield Denmark Elementary School's academic excellence is evident, with 83.33% of students proficient or better in ELA and 76.67% in Math, significantly outperforming the regional Regional School Unit 72/Maine School Admin District 72 (66.01% and 40.2%) and the state of Maine (64.63% and 48.68%). This strong performance is likely attributed to the school's low student-teacher ratio of 8.8, which allows for more personalized attention and support for students.

While the school's academic achievements are impressive, the data also highlights some areas for potential improvement. The school's student population is overwhelmingly White (97.3%), indicating a lack of racial diversity, and the high free/reduced lunch rate of 55.41% suggests that a significant portion of the student body faces socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.9% is relatively high, which could be a factor impacting student engagement and performance. Addressing these areas could help Brownfield Denmark Elementary School maintain and further enhance its academic excellence.
