Summary:

The 04949 zip code in Maine is home to a single elementary school, Walker Memorial School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. While the school has seen some fluctuations in its academic performance and statewide ranking in recent years, it faces challenges common to many schools serving low-income populations, including high chronic absenteeism and a need for additional resources and support.

Walker Memorial School has an enrollment of 51 students and a student-teacher ratio of 8.6. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics ranging from 42.86% in the 2023-2024 school year to 64.29% in the 2024-2025 school year. These results have placed the school's statewide ranking between 137th out of 289 elementary schools (3 out of 5 stars) and 260th out of 288 (1 out of 5 stars) in recent years. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% may be a contributing factor to these fluctuations.

Additionally, Walker Memorial School serves a relatively low-income student population, with 64.71% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic challenge can present additional barriers to educational success and may require targeted interventions and support from the Regional School Unit 03/Maine School Admin District 03 to help the school and its students thrive.
