Summary:

The Dayton Public Schools district in Maine has only one elementary school, Dayton Consolidated School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and rating over the past few years, dropping from 129th out of 290 Maine elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 219th out of 289 in 2024-2025, with its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 3 stars to 1 star during this time.

Academically, Dayton Consolidated School has seen mixed results. In the 2024-2025 school year, 57.38% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, slightly below the Dayton Public Schools district average of 64.02% and the Maine state average of 63.84%. In mathematics, the school performed better, with 45.9% of students proficient or better, higher than the district average of 39.02% but lower than the state average of 49.38%. The school's mathematics performance has improved from 55.56% proficient or better in 2023-2024, while its English Language Arts performance has remained relatively stable.

One area of concern for Dayton Consolidated School is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in the 2023-2024 school year, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 27.34% in the 2023-2024 school year, and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.6, suggesting the school may be serving a population with greater educational needs and requiring more resources to support student success.
