Summary:
Sedgwick Public Schools is a small school district in Maine with only one school, Sedgwick Elementary School, serving grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 73 students. The district as a whole is ranked 135 out of 176 districts in the state and has a 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Sedgwick Elementary School has consistently performed in the bottom half of Maine elementary schools, ranking 207th, 205th, and 208th out of 290, 288, and 289 schools respectively over the past three years. The school's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics slightly better than the district average but below the state average, while science proficiency is significantly lower than both the district and state averages. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4%, which is much higher than the state average.
Despite these challenges, Sedgwick Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.4, which may provide more individualized attention for students. However, the school serves a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 43.84% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may need additional resources and support to address the unique needs of its student population and improve overall academic performance.
