Summary:
The Monadnock Regional School District in New Hampshire is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools, which include Cutler Elementary School, Mt. Caesar Elementary School, Dr. George S. Emerson Elementary School, Troy Elementary School, and Gilsum STEAM Academy, exhibit a range of academic performance and student demographics.
Among the standout schools, Gilsum STEAM Academy stands out with the highest proficiency rates in reading (56%) and the second-highest in math (28%) for the 2023-2024 school year, despite having the smallest student enrollment and the highest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Dr. George S. Emerson Elementary School boasts the highest proficiency rates in reading (48%) and science (35%), as well as the highest 5th-grade reading proficiency rate at 68%, yet its overall statewide ranking is still relatively low.
The data reveals a significant disparity in academic performance across the Monadnock Regional School District, with some schools lagging behind the state averages in mathematics, reading, and science proficiency. This suggests the need for a closer examination of the factors contributing to these performance differences, as well as the potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement within the district.
