Best Public Schools in Zip Code 04259

Summary:

The 04259 zip code area is home to two schools - Monmouth Memorial School, an elementary school, and Monmouth Academy, a high school. Both schools are part of the Regional School Unit 02 district.

Monmouth Academy stands out as a high-performing school, ranking 38th out of 123 Maine high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is mixed, with students scoring above the regional and state averages in English Language Arts but below average in Math. Monmouth Memorial School, on the other hand, outperforms the regional and state averages in both English Language Arts and Science, indicating strong academic achievement at the elementary level.

While both schools have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, Monmouth Academy appears to have access to more resources, with a lower student-teacher ratio and a smaller percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to Monmouth Memorial School. This suggests that the two schools may serve student populations with different socioeconomic backgrounds, which could contribute to the observed differences in academic performance and resource allocation.
