Summary:

The Regional School Unit 13 in Maine is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The data reveals significant performance differences between these schools, with Ash Point Community School and Cushing Community School consistently outperforming the other schools in the district.

Ash Point Community School stands out with a 4-star rating, the highest test scores in the district, and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 36.75%. Meanwhile, Cushing Community School is the top-performing school, ranked 19th out of 289 Maine elementary schools with a perfect 5-star rating, the second-highest test scores, and the lowest student-teacher ratio at 7.3.

The data also reveals concerning issues across the district, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% and lower performance at South School and Thomaston Grammar School, particularly in Science. These disparities suggest that factors beyond just district-level resources, such as socioeconomic status and school size, may be contributing to the academic outcomes of these elementary schools.
