Summary:

Grantham, New Hampshire, has one listed public school, Grantham Village School, serving approximately 258 students from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade in the Grantham School District.

Because it is the only public school in town, there are no local school-to-school comparisons; however, the available results show exceptionally strong performance. In 2025–2026, 93% of students were proficient in mathematics, 88% in reading, and 89% in science, compared with New Hampshire averages of 44%, 55%, and 38%, respectively. Mathematics was especially consistent, with grade-level proficiency ranging from 93% to 95% in Grades 3–6. Reading was also strong, though results varied more by grade, from 79% in Grade 3 to 95% in Grade 6. The school’s 12.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio may offer favorable staffing context for families, although it does not represent exact class size.

The school’s results have improved over time. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, mathematics proficiency rose from 90% to 93%, reading increased from 86% to 88%, and science climbed from 74% to 89%. The district ranked first in the reported rankings for both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, after ranking sixth in 2023–2024, placing it among New Hampshire’s highest-performing districts. Grade 3 reading is the clearest area for closer attention because it was the lowest reported grade-level result, although 79% remains a strong outcome. Families should also note that proficiency rates show how many students meet standards, not average scores or individual growth, and that science data are available only for Grade 5.
