Summary:
The 04084 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Edna Libby Elementary School and George E Jack School) and 1 high school (Bonny Eagle High School). While Edna Libby Elementary School stands out as a top-performing school, the data reveals a significant disparity in academic performance between the elementary and high school levels.
Edna Libby Elementary School is a standout, ranking 56 out of 290 Maine elementary schools and significantly outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, Bonny Eagle High School has experienced a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 19 out of 82 Maine high schools in 2020-2021 to 105 out of 123 in 2022-2023. The high school also underperforms the district and state averages in core academic subjects.
Further analysis reveals that Bonny Eagle High School faces additional challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 46.1% and a relatively low 4-year graduation rate of 83.7%. These issues, coupled with the socioeconomic differences observed between the schools, suggest that addressing the root causes of these disparities should be a priority for the Regional School Unit 06/Maine School Admin District 06.
