Summary:
The Yarmouth Schools district in Maine is home to one exceptional middle school, Frank H. Harrison Middle School. This school has consistently been ranked the #1 middle school in Maine for the past 3 school years and has received the highest possible 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Frank H. Harrison Middle School stands out for its exceptional academic performance, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the Yarmouth Schools district and the state of Maine averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school had an 86.29% proficiency rate in ELA, compared to 84.98% for Yarmouth and 63.84% for Maine. The school also has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.4 to 1.
While the school's academic achievements are impressive, the data also reveals a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in 2023-2024, which is an area the school and district may want to investigate further. Additionally, the school serves a student population with a low percentage (4.85%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively affluent student body.
