Best Public Schools in Wilton, NH


Summary:

The city of Wilton, New Hampshire is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Wilton-Lyndeborough Cooperative School District. While the Florence Rideout Elementary School consistently performs well, ranking in the top half of New Hampshire elementary schools, the Wilton-Lyndeboro Senior High School and Wilton-Lyndeboro Middle School have struggled to maintain high academic achievement, ranking in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state.

The elementary school stands out for its strong performance, with proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science all above the district and state averages. It also maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11:1 and serves a relatively affluent student population, with only 21.67% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, the middle and high schools have faced challenges, particularly in mathematics proficiency, with scores well below the district and state averages.

The schools in Wilton also have a remarkably homogeneous student population, with over 97% of students identifying as white. This lack of diversity may limit the exposure of students to different cultures and perspectives. Additionally, the relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that the district serves a relatively affluent community, which may contribute to the academic performance of the schools. However, the district should ensure that it is providing equitable opportunities and support for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background.
