Summary:
The Rumney School District in New Hampshire is home to a single school, Russell Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's academic performance has been a concern, with proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science falling below the state averages. Over the past three years, the school's ranking and rating have also declined, raising questions about equity and the district's ability to support the needs of its student population.
Russell Elementary School has a predominantly white student body, with a high percentage (54.12%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 6.2 suggests smaller class sizes and more individualized attention, but this advantage does not appear to be translating into higher academic achievement. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school ranked 202 out of 237 New Hampshire elementary schools and was rated 1 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars, a concerning trend compared to its previous rankings and ratings.
The data highlights the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to the academic challenges faced by Russell Elementary School. Addressing these issues could be crucial for improving educational outcomes and ensuring equitable access to quality education for all students in the Rumney School District.
