Marlborough Elementary School faces several challenges, including a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.16%) compared to the state average and nearby schools, such as Symonds Elementary School in Keene. The school's test scores are generally below the state averages across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates in mathematics (36%), reading (47%), and science (23%) that are all lower than the state averages. Marlborough Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New Hampshire elementary schools, with a ranking of 169 out of 234 schools in the 2023-2024 school year, and has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (43.51%) suggests that it serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may contribute to the school's lower academic performance. When compared to nearby schools, such as Symonds Elementary School, Marlborough Elementary School generally performs worse on standardized tests and has a lower statewide ranking. The school's declining performance over the years, from a ranking of 136 out of 211 schools in 2020-2021 to 169 out of 234 schools in 2023-2024, is a concerning trend that suggests the need for improvement in the school's educational programs and strategies.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
