Elementary Schools in York Public Schools

Summary:

The York Public Schools district in Maine is home to two elementary schools: Coastal Ridge Elementary and Village Elementary School-York. These schools serve students from kindergarten through grade 5, providing a strong educational foundation in the York community.

Among the two schools, Coastal Ridge Elementary stands out as a high-performing institution, ranking 6th out of 289 Maine elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and maintaining a top 15 statewide ranking over the past three years. The school's students consistently outperform the York Public Schools district and the state of Maine in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with over 80% of students scoring proficient or better. Additionally, Coastal Ridge Elementary has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.4, indicating smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students.

In contrast, the data provided does not offer as much detailed information on Village Elementary School-York, making it more challenging to assess its performance relative to Coastal Ridge or the district/state. The available information suggests that Village Elementary School-York serves younger grades (K-1) and has an even lower student-teacher ratio of 8.0, which may contribute to a more personalized learning environment for its students.
