Summary:

Mapleton, Maine is home to a single standout elementary school, Mapleton Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top 6% of elementary schools in the state. This public school serves grades PK-5 and has an enrollment of 233 students. Mapleton Elementary School significantly outperforms the regional Regional School Unit 79/Maine School Admin District 01 and the state of Maine in academic proficiency, with 81.13% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 77.57% proficient in Mathematics.

The school's exceptional performance is likely due in part to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.7, which allows for more individualized attention and support. Additionally, Mapleton Elementary School has consistently improved its state-wide ranking over the past few years, moving from 44th position in 2022-2023 to 18th position in 2024-2025, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Mapleton Elementary School's academic achievements are impressive, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% is an area of concern that the school and district may need to address. By addressing this issue, the school can ensure that all students have the opportunity to fully benefit from the high-quality education it provides.
