Summary:
The Barnstead School District in New Hampshire is home to a single elementary school, Barnstead Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 and has an enrollment of 469 students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.7 to 1, its academic performance on standardized tests is consistently below the state average in Mathematics, Reading, and Science across all grade levels.
Barnstead Elementary School's overall Mathematics proficiency rate is 26%, compared to the state average of 41%, and its Reading proficiency rate is 35%, compared to the state average of 53%. The school's Science proficiency rate is also significantly lower than the state average, at just 21% compared to 36%. This poor academic performance has led to the school's ranking declining from 217 out of 233 New Hampshire elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 196 out of 234 in the current 2023-2024 school year, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Another notable characteristic of Barnstead Elementary School is its lack of diversity, with 97.23% of the student population identifying as White. This is significantly higher than the state's racial demographics, which may limit students' exposure to different cultures and perspectives. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 27.51% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school serves a more affluent community.
