Bonny Eagle Middle School has lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and experiences a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4%. In contrast, Buxton Center Elementary School outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts proficiency, but lags behind in Mathematics and Science.

Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, with Bonny Eagle Middle School at 11.6 and Buxton Center Elementary School at 11.0. However, the significant disparity in performance between the two schools suggests that factors beyond just class size, such as socioeconomic status and targeted academic support, may be contributing to the differences in educational outcomes for students in the 04093 zip code area.
