Summary:

Regional School Unit 63/Maine School Admin District 63 is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Holden School and Eddington School) and 1 middle school (Holbrook School). The district serves a diverse student population across these schools.

Among the schools, Holbrook School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the top 20 middle schools in Maine and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science on the Maine Educational Assessments (MEA). In contrast, Holden School also performs well, exceeding the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while data for Eddington School is not provided.

However, all three schools face a common challenge with high chronic absenteeism rates, which are higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools serve students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, as evidenced by the varying free and reduced-price lunch rates. The district may also need to address potential differences in resource allocation, as indicated by the varying student-teacher ratios across the schools.
