Summary:
The 04495 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, the Lee/Winn School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. This small school, part of the Regional School Unit 30/Maine School Admin District 30, has seen fluctuations in its academic performance and statewide ranking over the past few years.
The Lee/Winn School's proficiency rates on the Maine Educational Assessment (MEA) tests have been mixed, with English Language Arts scores ranging from 41.94% in 2023-2024 to 53.33% in 2024-2025, and Mathematics scores from 54.84% to 66.67% over the same period. While these scores are below the regional district's averages, they are still above the state's overall performance. The school's statewide ranking has also varied, from 227 out of 288 schools in 2023-2024 to 162 out of 289 schools in 2024-2025.
With a small student population of just 83 and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.2 to 1, the Lee/Winn School faces both advantages and challenges. The personalized attention may benefit students, but the limited resources and funding available to small schools could also present obstacles. Additionally, the school serves a population with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the fluctuations in academic performance and is an area that warrants further investigation.
