Summary:

New Hampton Community School is a public elementary school serving 104 students in grades K-5 in the Newfound Area School District of New Hampshire. This small school consistently outperforms state and district averages in academic proficiency, ranking among the top elementary schools in the state.

New Hampton Community School's academic performance is particularly strong, with 51% of students proficient or better in mathematics and 62% proficient or better in reading, exceeding the district and state averages.

This high-achieving school has maintained a 4 or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade and has ranked as high as 22nd out of 231 New Hampshire elementary schools. The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.1 to 13.5 students per teacher, likely contribute to its success.

While Paul A. Smith School and Holderness Central School also demonstrate strong academic performance, New Hampton Community School outperforms many nearby schools in the Newfound Area School District, such as Bridgewater-Hebron Village School and Bristol Elementary School. However, the school's predominantly White student population contrasts with the more diverse student bodies of some nearby schools, such as Elm Street School and Pleasant Street School in the Laconia School District.

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.
