Summary:

The city of Clinton, Maine has one elementary school, Clinton Elementary School, which serves students from grades K-5. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 49/Maine School Admin District 49.

Clinton Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maine elementary schools over the past few years, with a ranking of 245 out of 289 in 2024-2025, 261 out of 288 in 2023-2024, and 193 out of 290 in 2022-2023. The school's performance on state assessments is below the regional and state averages, with only 53.45% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 41.03% proficient or better in mathematics in 2024-2025. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 57.26% in 2023-2024 and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in the same year.

Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1 in 2023-2024, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention and support for students. However, this advantage does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes based on the available data. Addressing the challenges faced by Clinton Elementary School, such as low academic performance, socioeconomic factors, and attendance issues, will likely require a comprehensive approach involving school leadership, teachers, parents, and the broader community.
