Summary:
The Henniker School District in New Hampshire is home to a single school, Henniker Community School, which serves grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 400 students.
While Henniker Community School has a predominantly white student population, its academic performance lags behind state averages, particularly in mathematics and science proficiency. The school's overall mathematics proficiency rate is 36%, compared to the state average of 41%, and its science proficiency rate is just 15%, well below the state's 36%. Additionally, the school's reading proficiency rate of 38% is significantly lower than the state's 53%. This declining performance has led to the school's ranking dropping from a 2-star to a 1-star rating over the past three years.
The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.1 to 1 is lower than the state average, but the relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (18.25%) suggests that the school may be serving a population with socioeconomic challenges, which could impact student learning and achievement. The lack of diversity in the student population, with 93% of students identifying as white, may also limit the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience and prepare students for the diverse world they will encounter after graduation.
