Strafford School is part of the Strafford School District, which is ranked 91 out of 163 districts in New Hampshire and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Strafford School's academic performance is generally consistent with or slightly above state averages, with proficiency rates of 43% in mathematics, 51% in reading, and 42% in science. However, there is significant variation in mathematics proficiency across grade levels, with some grades performing below the state average. The school has a predominantly white student population (98.01%), with limited racial diversity, and a relatively low percentage of students (16.87%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school serves a more affluent community. The school's small size, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.8, may contribute to its academic performance and provide more personalized attention for students.

Overall, Strafford School appears to be a solid, if not exceptional, elementary school, providing a consistent educational foundation for its students. However, the school's lack of racial diversity and the variation in mathematics proficiency may be areas for further investigation and improvement to ensure all students are receiving a well-rounded and equitable education.
