Summary:

The zip code 04983 is home to a single middle school, Day Mountain Regional Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance and characteristics provide a mixed picture, with strengths in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency but challenges in mathematics and attendance.

Day Mountain Regional Middle School has a relatively small enrollment of 147 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.5 to 1. The school's ELA proficiency rates have consistently outperformed the regional and state averages, ranging from 65.69% to 79.31% proficient or better. However, its mathematics proficiency rates have been lower than the regional and state averages, ranging from 37.41% to 37.96% proficient or better. The school's science proficiency rates have been mixed, with the school outperforming the region in 2023-2024 but underperforming in 2024-2025.

One area of concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 59.18%, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 28th out of 96 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 47th out of 91 in 2024-2025, with a 4-star rating in 2022-2023 and 2023-2024, and a 2-star rating in 2024-2025.
