Wentworth Elementary School

Summary:

Wentworth Elementary School is a small public school serving grades K-8 in Wentworth, New Hampshire, with a student population of just 68 students. While the school is part of the Warren School District, which is ranked 135 out of 163 districts in the state, Wentworth Elementary has some unique characteristics that set it apart.

One notable aspect of Wentworth Elementary is its racial makeup, with 98.53% of students identifying as white, significantly higher than the state average of around 70%. Academically, the school's performance on the NH SAS assessments is generally lower than the state and district averages, with proficiency rates of 35% in math, 52% in reading, and 35% in science, compared to state averages of 41%, 53%, and 36%, respectively. Wentworth Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New Hampshire elementary schools, placing 176 out of 234 schools in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students, 42.65%, receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is significantly higher than the state average and some nearby schools, such as Holderness Central School.

These findings suggest that Wentworth Elementary School may be facing some challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The lack of diversity, consistently low academic performance, and socioeconomic challenges could all be contributing factors. While the school is part of a district that is ranked in the bottom half of New Hampshire districts, nearby schools like Holderness Central School appear to be performing significantly better, indicating that there may be room for improvement at Wentworth Elementary.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
