Summary:

The Regional School Unit 51/Maine School Admin District 51 is home to four high-performing schools, including two elementary schools (Mabel I. Wilson School and Greely Middle School 4-5), one middle school (Greely Middle School), and one high school (Greely High School). These schools consistently outperform the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with several schools ranked among the top in Maine.

Greely High School stands out as the district's top performer, ranked 2nd out of 119 Maine high schools for the 2024-2025 school year and maintaining a 1st or 2nd place ranking for the past 3 years. It boasts a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and impressive test scores, with over 80% of students proficient or better in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Mabel I. Wilson School and Greely Middle School also stand out, with rankings in the top 20 and top 10 of their respective school types in Maine.

While the schools in this district demonstrate exceptional academic performance, they face a challenge with high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which may warrant further investigation and targeted interventions. Additionally, the relatively low free/reduced lunch rates suggest the district may have a relatively affluent student population, raising questions about equity and access to educational opportunities for all students. Nevertheless, the district's efficient resource allocation, as evidenced by the low student-teacher ratios, and its exceptional Mathematics performance are noteworthy strengths that could serve as models for other districts.
