Summary:
The Madison School District has only one elementary school, Madison Elementary School, which serves grades K-6. With a small student population of 124, the school has a predominantly white student body and a relatively high free and reduced lunch rate of 38.71%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.
While Madison Elementary School's reading proficiency rates are closer to the state average, its performance in mathematics and science is notably lower, with proficiency rates ranging from 17% to 58% in math and 0% in 5th grade science, compared to state averages of 41-53% and 36%, respectively. This suggests potential areas for improvement in these subject areas. The school's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 131st out of 237 New Hampshire elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 153rd out of 234 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Despite its academic challenges, Madison Elementary School benefits from a low student-teacher ratio of 9.9, which is lower than the state average. This may provide opportunities for more personalized attention and support for students. However, the school's small size and the unique needs of its economically disadvantaged population may also present additional challenges that require targeted interventions and resources to address the academic gaps and support the overall development of the students.
