Somersworth School District


Summary:

The Somersworth School District in New Hampshire consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district's academic performance is generally below the state average, with Somersworth High School and Maple Wood Elementary School standing out as the district's top-performing schools, though still with room for improvement.

Maple Wood Elementary School is the district's highest-performing school, ranking 211 out of 234 New Hampshire elementary schools and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. It has the highest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients in the district at 44.84%, but performs relatively better than the district and state averages in mathematics and reading proficiency, particularly in 3rd and 5th grades. In contrast, Somersworth High School is the district's lowest-performing school, ranking 67 out of 87 New Hampshire high schools and also earning a 1-star rating. While it has the lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 30.46%, it significantly lags behind the state average in both mathematics and reading proficiency.

Overall, the Somersworth School District faces significant challenges in improving the academic performance of its students, particularly in the areas of mathematics and science. The district's high free/reduced lunch rates suggest a need for additional support and resources to address the academic challenges faced by economically disadvantaged students. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, additional resources, and a focus on improving teaching and learning practices.
