Easton Elementary School is a top-performing school, ranking in the top 40 elementary schools in Maine and significantly outperforming the district and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency. The school's relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 17.9% also suggests a strong commitment to student attendance.
