Summary:

The Washburn District High School is the sole high school located in Regional School Unit 45/Maine School Admin District 45. This small high school serves a population with a relatively high rate of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a lower socioeconomic status. Despite these challenges, the school has shown strengths in English Language Arts performance, outpacing the district and state averages.

Washburn District High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 44th out of 119 Maine high schools in 2024-2025 to 70th out of 121 in 2023-2024. The school's four-year graduation rate was 87.8% in 2023-2024, while its chronic absenteeism rate was 23.4%. In terms of academic performance, the school has demonstrated higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts compared to the district and state, but lower proficiency rates in Mathematics.
