Summary:

The 04957 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Mill Stream Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 345 students. While the school has a predominantly white student population, it faces challenges in academic performance, with proficiency rates below the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Mill Stream Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 134th out of 228 Maine elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 213th out of 290 in 2022-2023, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is also higher than the state average at 22.3%. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population (64.64%) comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite these challenges, Mill Stream Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, suggesting smaller class sizes. However, the school's academic performance and socioeconomic factors may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and better serve the needs of the community. Parents in the 04957 zip code should consider these factors when evaluating educational options for their children.
