Best Public Schools in Effingham, NH

Summary:

Effingham, New Hampshire is home to a single public elementary school, Effingham Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 104 students. The school's student population is predominantly white, with a relatively high percentage (39.42%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic need among the community.

Academically, Effingham Elementary School's performance has been mixed compared to the broader Governor Wentworth Regional School District and the state of New Hampshire. While the school has some areas of strength, such as 6th-grade reading and mathematics proficiency, its overall statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from 77th out of 233 New Hampshire elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 129th out of 234 schools in 2023-2024. This decline in academic performance, particularly in mathematics, may indicate a need for targeted interventions and support to help students improve their proficiency in core subject areas.

Despite the school's challenges, it maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 9.7 to 1, which is lower than the state average and may contribute to more personalized attention for students. However, the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Effingham Elementary School suggests that the school may face additional hurdles in supporting the academic and social-emotional needs of its diverse student population.
