Summary:
Orrington Public Schools in Maine has only one elementary school, Center Drive School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has maintained a relatively strong academic performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science exceeding the state averages. However, its statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, indicating that its performance may be influenced by factors beyond just the school's own efforts.
Center Drive School has a diverse student population, with a predominantly White student body (92.8%) and notable percentages of African American (2.49%), Hispanic (1.66%), Asian (1.94%), and Native American (0.83%) students. The school also faces socioeconomic challenges, with a 32.13% free and reduced-price lunch rate, suggesting a significant portion of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Despite these challenges, the school has an exceptional attendance record, with a 0.0% chronic absenteeism rate, which likely contributes to its overall academic performance.
Overall, Orrington Public Schools has a single elementary school that is performing well in certain areas, such as English Language Arts and Science proficiency, but may need to allocate additional resources and support to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged students and ensure they have equal opportunities for academic success.
