Summary:
The Blue Hill Public Schools district in Maine is home to a single school, Blue Hill Consolidated School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 254 students. This school stands out as a high-performing institution, ranking 22nd out of 289 Maine elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Blue Hill Consolidated School's academic performance is significantly higher than the district and state averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, 83.87% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 81.32% for the district and 63.84% for the state. In math, 69.03% of students were proficient or better, compared to 68.13% for the district and 49.38% for the state. The school's science proficiency rate of 56% is also well above the district (48.1%) and state (36.18%) averages.
While the school's academic achievements are impressive, there are a few areas that warrant further attention. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in 2023-2024 is a metric to monitor closely. Additionally, the school's relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 18.9% in 2023-2024 may indicate that the school serves a more affluent population, which could raise questions about equity and access to high-performing schools for students from lower-income families.
