Summary:
The 04062 zip code is home to a single public high school, Windham High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Regional School Unit 14 district. While the school maintains a relatively strong four-year graduation rate, it faces challenges in academic performance and student attendance that have contributed to a declining statewide ranking in recent years.
Windham High School's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science lag behind both the district and state averages, indicating room for improvement in student learning outcomes. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% is also relatively high, which could be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance. However, the school serves a student population with a relatively higher socioeconomic status, as evidenced by the low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite these challenges, Windham High School maintains a solid four-year graduation rate of 87.8%, which is a positive indicator. The school's declining statewide ranking, from 40th out of 123 schools in 2022-2023 to 89th out of 119 schools in 2024-2025, suggests a relative decline in performance compared to other high schools in Maine. Addressing the academic performance and attendance issues could be key focus areas for the school and district to improve student outcomes and overall school performance.
