Regional School Unit 22


Summary:

Regional School Unit 22 in Maine is home to 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district's schools demonstrate a range of academic performance, with several standout institutions like Reeds Brook Middle School and George B Weatherbee School consistently ranking among the top schools in the state. However, the district also faces challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools.

Reeds Brook Middle School and George B Weatherbee School stand out as the district's top performers, with exceptional test scores and consistent rankings in the state's top schools. In contrast, the other elementary schools in the district, Leroy H Smith School and Newburgh Elementary School, have lower rankings and test scores, suggesting a disparity in elementary school performance within the district.

The district's high school, Hampden Academy, also performs well, ranking 17th out of 121 Maine high schools for the 2023-2024 school year. However, the district as a whole faces a concerning issue of high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be an area for further investigation and intervention. Additionally, the varying free/reduced lunch rates among the schools suggest that socioeconomic factors may play a role in student performance, and the district may need to consider targeted support for schools with higher rates of economically disadvantaged students.
