Summary:
The Winnisquam Regional School District in New Hampshire is home to two elementary schools: Southwick School and Sanbornton Central School. While both schools serve students in the district, the data analysis reveals that Sanbornton Central School is the standout performer, consistently outpacing Southwick School and the district/state averages in academic achievement.
Sanbornton Central School ranks 93rd out of 234 New Hampshire elementary schools and earns a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, significantly higher than Southwick School's 1-star rating and 187th ranking. Sanbornton Central School's students demonstrate stronger proficiency in both math and reading, with 59% of students proficient or better in math compared to 39% for the district and 41% for the state. Additionally, Sanbornton Central School has a relatively more affluent student population, with a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (37.85%) compared to Southwick School (41.81%).
While Southwick School has a larger student population of 287 students, compared to 177 at Sanbornton Central School, the smaller school size of Sanbornton Central School may be a contributing factor to its higher academic performance. The data suggests that the Winnisquam Regional School District should further investigate the factors behind the performance gap between the two schools and implement strategies to ensure more equitable educational outcomes across all its schools.
