Summary:
The Hillsboro-Deering Cooperative School District in New Hampshire is home to a single high school, Hillsboro-Deering High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has a predominantly white student population, its academic performance is generally below the state average, particularly in mathematics and reading proficiency.
Hillsboro-Deering High School's mathematics proficiency rate is significantly lower than the state average, with only 20% of students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 41%. The school's reading proficiency rate is also below the state average, with 51% of students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 53%. Additionally, the school's SAT performance in both mathematics and reading is below the state averages. However, the school's science proficiency rate for 11th-grade students is higher than the state average, at 51% compared to 39%.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.3, which may indicate smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students. However, the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 32.16%, suggests that the school serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may contribute to the academic performance issues. Overall, Hillsboro-Deering High School appears to be struggling to keep up with the academic standards and expectations of the broader educational system in New Hampshire, and may benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student learning and achievement.
