Best Public Schools in Zip Code 04627

Summary:

The 04627 zip code is home to two schools, Deer Isle-Stonington Elementary School and Deer Isle-Stonington High School, both part of the Deer Isle-Stonington Central School District. While the schools share a predominantly white student population, they face distinct challenges in academic performance, attendance, and graduation rates.

Deer Isle-Stonington Elementary School has a homogeneous student body, with 96.55% of students identifying as white. The school's academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, falls below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Additionally, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5%. In contrast, the high school has a slightly more diverse student population, with 93.04% of students identifying as white. However, the high school's academic performance is also below the district and state averages in core subject areas, and its chronic absenteeism rate is significantly higher at 40%.

Both schools face challenges related to academic achievement and student engagement. The high school's four-year graduation rate of 78.2% is lower than the state average, and the relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, especially at the high school (55.65%), suggest that the schools serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes, indicating a need to examine how resources are being utilized and allocated to address the unique needs of the Deer Isle-Stonington school community.
