Best Public Schools in Fitzwilliam, NH

Summary:

The city of Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire is home to a single public elementary school, the Dr. George S. Emerson Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has a total enrollment of 163 students. The school's student population is predominantly White (91.41%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic, African American, Asian, and multiracial students.

Academically, the Dr. George S. Emerson Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to state averages in Mathematics, Reading, and Science proficiency across all grade levels. For example, the school's overall Mathematics proficiency rate was 32% compared to the state average of 41%, and its Reading proficiency rate was 48% compared to the state's 53%. However, the school has shown some improvement, with its SchoolDigger rating increasing from 1 to 2 stars between the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 school years. The school's high percentage of students (23.31%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch suggests it serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to its lower academic performance.

Despite the school's underperformance compared to state averages, the Dr. George S. Emerson Elementary School's low student-teacher ratio of 12.4 indicates smaller class sizes and the potential for more individualized attention for students. With targeted interventions and support, the school may be able to continue its upward trajectory and better serve the educational needs of the Fitzwilliam community, which is part of the Monadnock Regional School District.
