Brooksville Public Schools

Brooksville Public Schools is a small school district in Maine, consisting of a single school, Brooksville Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 40 students. Despite its small size, the school stands out for its strong performance in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates consistently above the state average over the past three years. However, the school's mathematics proficiency rates have been lower than the state average, indicating a potential area for improvement.

With a very low student-teacher ratio of 4.6, Brooksville Elementary School likely provides a highly personalized learning environment for its students, which could contribute to its strong ELA performance. The school also has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4%, which is below the district average. Interestingly, the school has a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (20%), suggesting a relatively affluent student population compared to the state average.

Despite its overall strong performance, Brooksville Elementary School's statewide ranking has dropped from 90th out of 210 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 146th out of 288 in 2023-2024, indicating a potential decline in performance relative to other schools in the state. This suggests that while the school excels in certain areas, it may also have room for improvement to maintain its competitive edge among other schools in Maine.
