Summary:
The 04495 zip code is home to a single elementary school, the Lee/Winn School, which serves grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 90 students. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 30/Maine School Admin District 30. While the school's student population is predominantly White (95.56%), it has seen an improvement in its ranking, moving from 198 out of 258 elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 181 out of 290 in 2022-2023, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Lee/Winn School has a 61.11% proficiency rate in English Language Arts, slightly below the district (68.75%) and state (64.63%) averages, but a 50% proficiency rate in Mathematics, which is higher than the district average (42.98%). However, the school faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.1% and a significant percentage (61.11%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the presence of socioeconomic factors that may impact student success.
Despite these challenges, the school has shown signs of improvement, and its strengths in mathematics instruction and the overall positive trend in its ranking suggest that it may be a viable option for families in the 04495 zip code. However, the lack of diversity in the student population and the high chronic absenteeism rate are areas that may require further investigation and targeted interventions to ensure the success of all students.
