Best Public Schools in Charlestown, NH

Summary:

The city of Charlestown, New Hampshire is home to two schools: Charlestown Primary School and Charlestown Middle School, both part of the Fall Mountain Regional School District. While the primary school shows some areas of strength, the middle school consistently underperforms compared to district and state averages.

Charlestown Primary School ranks 151 out of 234 New Hampshire elementary schools and has a 2-star rating, with relatively high 4th grade math proficiency but lower 3rd grade math proficiency compared to the district and state. In contrast, Charlestown Middle School ranks 118 out of 130 New Hampshire middle schools and has a 0-star rating, significantly underperforming in math, reading, and science across all grades.

Both schools have a high percentage of white students, over 93%, and a significant portion of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting potential socioeconomic challenges. The primary school's lower student-teacher ratio of 9.5 compared to the middle school's 11.5 may contribute to its relatively stronger performance, indicating a potential imbalance in resource allocation between the two schools.
