Summary:
The 04263 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Leeds Central School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 191 students. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 52/Maine School Administrative District 52.
While Leeds Central School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.2, the school has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking and rating over the past three years. Its proficiency rates in English Language Arts (45.36%) and Mathematics (46.94%) are lower than the regional and statewide averages, indicating potential achievement gaps. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 15.7% is higher than the state average, which may be an area of concern.
Socioeconomic factors also appear to be a challenge, as 32.46% of students at Leeds Central School are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the school may need to consider the impact of these factors on student learning and provide additional support or resources to address them. Overall, the analysis of the data for Leeds Central School reveals both areas of concern, such as declining academic performance and attendance issues, as well as a potential strength in the form of a lower student-teacher ratio, which may require further investigation and targeted interventions to support the school's improvement efforts.
