Summary:

The Auburn Public Schools district in Maine consists of 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 113 out of 176 districts in Maine and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out in their performance. Fairview School and East Auburn Community School are both high-performing elementary schools, consistently ranking among the top 50-68 elementary schools in Maine and earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger. These schools have significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages. Another school, Walton School, also performs better than the district average, with a 3-star rating and proficiency rates above 50% in both ELA and Math.

However, the data also reveals stark differences in performance between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools, such as Park Avenue Elementary, Sherwood Heights Elementary, and Washburn School. Additionally, the district as a whole faces challenges, including a consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% across all schools and lower-than-average performance at the middle school (Auburn Middle School) and high school (Edward Little High School) levels.
