Summary:

Readfield, Maine is home to a single middle school, Maranacook Community Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. As the only middle school in the area, it provides a unique educational environment for the local community. The school has consistently ranked in the top half of Maine middle schools over the past three years, demonstrating strong performance in English Language Arts but underperforming in Mathematics compared to state and district averages.

Maranacook Community Middle School's student population of 297 students benefits from a low student-teacher ratio of 11:1. The school's performance on state assessments has been mixed, with students outperforming the state and district in English Language Arts and Science, but underperforming in Mathematics. This suggests the school may need to focus on strengthening its math curriculum and instructional practices. Additionally, the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% could be a contributing factor to its lower Mathematics performance and is an area for potential improvement.

Despite these challenges, Regional School Unit 38, the district that Maranacook Community Middle School is a part of, is ranked 54th out of 176 school districts in Maine and the middle school itself is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. This indicates the school is providing a quality education to its students and is a strong performer within the state's educational system.
