Summary:
Epsom, New Hampshire is home to a single elementary school, Epsom Central School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 392 students. While the school has a predominantly white student population, its academic performance has been inconsistent, with proficiency rates in mathematics and reading often falling below the state average.
Epsom Central School's mathematics proficiency rates are consistently below the New Hampshire state average, with an overall rate of 29% compared to the state's 41%. However, the school's reading proficiency is more mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average while others lag behind. In science, the school's proficiency rates are slightly above the state average. The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.2 is lower than the state average, indicating relatively small class sizes.
Over the past few years, Epsom Central School's performance has declined, with its statewide ranking dropping from 73rd out of 233 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 167th out of 234 in 2023-2024. This decline is reflected in the school's SchoolDigger star rating, which has decreased from 3 to 1. The school's lack of diversity and the need for a comprehensive review of its educational practices and strategies to improve student outcomes suggest that the Epsom School District has work to do to ensure that all students in the community receive a high-quality education.
