Best Public Schools in Zip Code 04736

Summary:

The 04736 zip code area in Maine is home to 4 public schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 high school. While the schools in this area display a range of performance, Woodland Consolidated School stands out as a top-performing elementary school, consistently ranking among the best in the state. In contrast, Connor Consolidated School, a small elementary school with only 31 students, has faced challenges and ranks in the bottom quarter of Maine's elementary schools.

The data reveals a notable disparity in the performance and rankings of the schools within the 04736 zip code area. Caribou Community School and Caribou High School have test scores that are generally below the state averages, while Woodland Consolidated School stands out with significantly higher test scores in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The small size of Connor Consolidated School may be a contributing factor to its lower overall ranking, despite its relatively strong test scores in English Language Arts.

Across all four schools, the data reveals a concerning trend of high chronic absenteeism rates, which are higher than the state average. Additionally, the higher free and reduced lunch rates at Caribou Community School and Caribou High School suggest a larger proportion of students from low-income families, which may impact academic performance and other school-related factors.
