Summary:

Limestone Public Schools is a small school district in Maine that serves the community of Limestone, with only one school in the district - Limestone Community School. This elementary school serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 144 students.

Limestone Community School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maine elementary schools in recent years, ranking 271st out of 289 schools in 2024-2025, 264th out of 288 schools in 2023-2024, and 268th out of 290 schools in 2022-2023. The school's performance on state assessments is also below the state average, with only 40.26% proficiency in English Language Arts, 31.17% in Mathematics, and 33.33% in Science, compared to the state averages of 63.84%, 49.38%, and 36.18%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 60.42% in 2023-2024, and a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in the same year.

Despite the school's low performance and challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.1 to 1 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may be serving a socioeconomically disadvantaged population, which could contribute to the academic difficulties. Addressing the root causes of the school's persistent low performance and high chronic absenteeism should be a priority for the Limestone Public Schools district to support student success.
