Summary:
The Regional School Unit 01 - Lkrsu district in Maine is home to a single high school, Morse High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has shown some improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 36th out of 123 high schools in 2022-2023 to 68th out of 121 in 2023-2024, it is still rated only 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Morse High School's performance appears to be declining over time, as evidenced by its lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the regional and state averages. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students (37.2%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in 2023-2024 is significantly higher than the state average.
While Morse High School's four-year graduation rate of 87.8% in 2023-2024 is slightly below the state average, the school's overall performance, as measured by metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism, indicates a need for improvement in order to better serve its students and the community. To address these challenges, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to support student achievement and engagement.
