Summary

Edna Libby Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-3 in Standish, Maine, with 306 students. The school has faced some challenges, including fluctuating academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Academically, Edna Libby Elementary School has shown mixed results in recent years. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school ranked 56 out of 290 Maine elementary schools and had a 4-star rating, with 74.19% of students proficient or better in ELA and 63.49% in Math. However, the school's ranking and rating dropped in the following two years, with only 47.06% and 54.1% of students proficient or better in ELA, respectively. Compared to nearby schools in the Regional School Unit 06/Maine School Admin District 06, Edna Libby's academic performance is generally lower, though it outperforms the nearby George E Jack School.

One bright spot is the school's low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.8 to 14.6 over the past few years, which is lower than the nearby schools. Additionally, the strong performance of Steep Falls Elementary School, another school within the same district, suggests that there may be opportunities for Edna Libby to learn from its neighbors and implement best practices to improve its own academic outcomes and address the challenges it faces, such as high chronic absenteeism and the needs of its student population.
