Summary

Bonny Eagle Middle School is a public middle school located in Buxton, Maine, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 710 students. The school is part of the Regional School Unit 06/Maine School Admin District 06, which is ranked 107 out of 176 districts in Maine and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bonny Eagle Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maine middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 47-82 out of 86-96 schools. Its SchoolDigger rating has also been low, ranging from 0 to 3 stars out of 5. The school's performance varies significantly across different student groups, with Hispanic and multi-racial students performing relatively well, but the school struggling with its female, male, white, special education, and low socioeconomic status student populations. Bonny Eagle Middle School has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.4% to 32.0% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Academically, the school's performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better on the Maine Educational Assessments (MEA), is generally below the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with particularly weak performance in Mathematics.

When compared to nearby middle schools, Bonny Eagle Middle School generally performs worse than higher-ranked schools like Scarborough Middle School, Gorham Middle School, and Saco Middle School, but better than lower-ranked schools like Westbrook Middle School and Sacopee Valley Middle School. The school's relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch may be a contributing factor to its academic performance, as research has shown that socioeconomic status can significantly impact student outcomes.
