Best Public Schools in North Conway, NH

Summary:

The city of North Conway, New Hampshire is home to two schools: Kennett High School and John H. Fuller School, an elementary school. Based on the available data, the elementary school appears to be the stronger performer, consistently ranking in the top half of New Hampshire elementary schools and maintaining a 4-star and 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, Kennett High School has seen more fluctuation in its rankings, dropping from 36th out of 85 high schools in 2022-2023 to 76th out of 87 in 2023-2024, before improving slightly to 59th out of 86 in the projected 2024-2025 school year. Its performance has been more uneven, with a 1-star rating in 2023-2024 followed by a 2-star and 3-star rating in the surrounding years. The high school has also underperformed the state and district averages in math, reading, and science proficiency on the NH SAS and SAT exams.

Both schools have relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, with over 29% of students at Kennett High School and over 33% at John H. Fuller School qualifying, suggesting a significant population of economically disadvantaged students in the Conway School District. The student-teacher ratios are relatively low at both schools, which could be a positive factor contributing to their performance.
