Best Public Schools in Center Ossipee, NH

Summary:

The city of Center Ossipee, New Hampshire is home to a single elementary school, Ossipee Central School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 287 students. The school is part of the Governor Wentworth Regional School District, which is ranked 82 out of 163 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ossipee Central School faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science that are lower than both the district and state averages. The school's overall mathematics proficiency rate was 40% in 2023-2024, compared to 44% for the district and 41% for the state. Similarly, the school's reading proficiency rate was 37%, compared to 54% for the district and 53% for the state. In science, the school's proficiency rate was just 28%, significantly lower than the 39% district average and 36% state average. These academic performance concerns suggest the need for targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes.

Ossipee Central School also serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, with 57.14% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, the school has a very homogeneous student population, with over 96% of students identifying as white, which may limit the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.2 to 1 could be a potential strength, though it does not appear to be translating into higher academic achievement based on the available data.
