Summary:

The 04986 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Mt View Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. Based on the available data, this school appears to be struggling academically, with consistently low performance on state assessments compared to the district and state averages.

Mt View Elementary School is ranked 274th out of 289 Maine elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and has a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (46.28%) and Mathematics (33.61%) for the 2024-2025 school year are significantly below the Regional School Unit 03/Maine School Admin District 03 (55.01% and 37.8%) and state (63.84% and 49.38%) averages. Additionally, the school's Science proficiency rate for the 2023-2024 school year was only 17.14%, compared to 29.41% for the district and 33.98% for the state.

The data also reveals that Mt View Elementary School has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.4% for the 2023-2024 school year, and a relatively high percentage (59.62%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While the school has a low student-teacher ratio of 9.3 to 1, this does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes for students. Significant improvements would be needed to bring the school up to par with the district and state averages.
