The data reveals notable differences in the performance and characteristics of these schools within the Regional School Unit 37/Maine School Admin District 37.

Among the standout schools, Milbridge Elementary School emerges as the highest-performing, ranking 149 out of 289 Maine elementary schools and boasting the district's highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (63.33%) and Mathematics (55.74%) for the 2024-2025 school year. In contrast, Narraguagus High School faces challenges, with lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Across the district, all 4 schools share a consistent chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in 2023-2024, indicating a potential area for improvement. Additionally, the schools display disparities in their free and reduced lunch rates, with the elementary schools having significantly higher rates than the high school, suggesting socioeconomic challenges at the elementary level. The variation in student-teacher ratios, from 7.7 at Daniel W Merritt School to 13.4 at Narraguagus High School, may also contribute to differences in the learning environment and personalized attention for students.
