Summary:
The Maine School Admin District 46 contains only one elementary school, Ridge View Community School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 562 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maine elementary schools over the past three years, with a 1-star or 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in providing a high-quality education for its students.
Academically, Ridge View Community School lags behind state averages, with only 53.5% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 35.21% in Mathematics, and 20.97% in Science, compared to state averages of 63.84%, 49.38%, and 36.18%, respectively. The school also faces high chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 23.4%, and serves a student population with a high concentration of economic disadvantage, with over 66% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the challenges faced by Ridge View Community School, the data suggests that the school and the district may need to address these issues to improve student outcomes. Strategies to improve academic performance, reduce chronic absenteeism, and provide additional resources and support for the school's economically disadvantaged student population could be crucial in helping the school better serve the needs of its community.
