St George Public Schools

Summary:

The St George Public Schools district in Maine consists of a single elementary school, St George School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 197 students. Despite being the only school in the district, St George School stands out as a high-performing institution, ranking in the top 30% of Maine elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, St George School excels, with proficiency rates on the Maine Educational Assessment (MEA) exams exceeding the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school's 70% proficiency rate in ELA and 59.54% in Mathematics are particularly impressive, outpacing the district and state by several percentage points. Additionally, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.2 to 1, which likely contributes to its strong academic outcomes.

While the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% is higher than the state average, this could be attributed to the school's relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 46.19% of the population qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this challenge, St George School has consistently improved its ranking over the past three years, rising from 135th to 85th among Maine elementary schools, solidifying its position as a standout institution within the St George Public Schools district.
