Summary:
The 03281 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - that serve students across different grade levels. While the schools share a geographic proximity, their academic performance varies, with John Stark Regional High School and Center Woods School emerging as standout institutions compared to Weare Middle School.
Center Woods School, the elementary school, outperforms the district and state averages in both math and reading proficiency for 3rd-grade students, and it has the highest math proficiency rate (38%) among the 3 schools. John Stark Regional High School, on the other hand, performs better than the district average in reading proficiency for all grades and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.5, which could contribute to better learning outcomes. In contrast, Weare Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of middle schools statewide, indicating lower academic performance.
The data also reveals that the schools have a predominantly white student population, with relatively low percentages of minority students. The free/reduced lunch rates range from 15.08% at John Stark Regional High School to 20.42% at Weare Middle School, suggesting a relatively low-to-moderate level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. This disparity in school performance and the potential socioeconomic influences highlight the importance of analyzing data at the individual school level to identify areas for improvement and inform targeted interventions within the John Stark Regional School District and Weare School District.
