Summary:
The 03452 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School District. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, they generally underperform compared to district and state averages on standardized tests, particularly in math and science proficiency. The Jaffrey Grade School stands out as the strongest performer, exceeding district and state averages in 3rd and 4th grade math and 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade reading. However, the Conant Middle High School (high school) had the lowest math proficiency rate at 15%, compared to the district and state averages of 31% and 41%, respectively.
The student population in the 03452 zip code is predominantly white, ranging from 84.98% to 88.54% across the schools. This lack of diversity may be a concern for the community. Additionally, the schools serve a significant portion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 25.79% to 36.81%. These factors, combined with the overall academic underperformance, suggest the need for a comprehensive approach to address the educational needs of the 03452 zip code area.
The Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School District as a whole is ranked 131 out of 163 districts in New Hampshire and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating systemic challenges that may be impacting the schools in the 03452 zip code. Addressing these challenges, such as improving curriculum, teaching quality, and resource allocation, could lead to better academic outcomes and a more equitable education for all students in the community.
