Summary:
The 05667 zip code area is home to two schools: Twinfield Union School, an alternative school serving grades PK-12, and Calais Elementary School, an elementary school serving grades PK-6. While Twinfield Union School serves a broader grade range, Calais Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, with exceptional test scores that significantly exceed the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics for 6th-grade students.
In contrast, Twinfield Union School appears to be underperforming compared to state averages, with lower test scores across multiple grade levels. This disparity may be influenced by the school's higher free and reduced lunch rate of 37.62%, suggesting it serves a more economically disadvantaged student population. Despite the higher spending per student at Twinfield Union School, this does not seem to be translating into higher academic achievement based on the available data.
The proximity of these two schools within the same zip code area presents an opportunity for collaboration and the sharing of best practices. Calais Elementary School, which is part of the Washington Central Unified Union School District #92, could potentially serve as a model for Twinfield Union School District #33 to help improve the performance of Twinfield Union School.
