Lewiston Elementary

The area has one K–8 school, Lewiston Elementary, with 68 students, so there are no other local schools to compare. In 2025–26, 35% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 28% in math, and 20% in science, compared with 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide. The school was below the state in all three subjects, with the largest all-grades gap in science: 16 percentage points.

As the only school listed, Lewiston Elementary is both the highest and lowest locally; that does not indicate how schools across the area would compare. Its fifth-grade results show a different subject pattern: science was 8 points below the state, while ELA was 16 points below and math was 28 points below. In the all-grades results, math was closer to the state than ELA: the gaps were 10 and 14 points, respectively, even though the school’s ELA proficiency rate was higher than its math rate. Chronic absenteeism was 12% in 2025–26, below the state’s 18% rate.

Results improved year over year in both tested subjects, and the school narrowed its gaps with the state. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, ELA proficiency rose 5 percentage points and math rose 6 points; the state’s increases were less than 1 point in ELA and 1 point in math. The gaps narrowed by 4 points in ELA and 5 points in math, but remained. SchoolDigger lists Lewiston Elementary at the 21st percentile in 2025–26, compared with the 78th percentile in 2005–06. For context, the school had a 22.8:1 student–teacher ratio in 2024–25, and 69% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. With only one school listed, these figures cannot show how school characteristics compare with achievement across local schools.
