High Schools in Augusta Public Schools

Summary:

The Augusta Public Schools district in Maine has only one high school, Cony High School, which serves grades 9-12. While the school has seen fluctuations in its state-wide ranking over the past few years, it currently ranks 111 out of 119 Maine high schools for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 0 out of 5 SchoolDigger star rating.

Cony High School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, is significantly below the district and state averages. The school's four-year graduation rate of 87.8% for the 2023-2024 school year is also lower than desired. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4%, which can negatively impact student learning and outcomes.

Socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's challenges, as Cony High School has a relatively high free and reduced lunch rate of 36.93% for the 2023-2024 school year. The school's student-teacher ratio of 15.6 is within a typical range, but the combination of academic underperformance, high absenteeism, and socioeconomic factors suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education to its students.
