Best Public Schools in Penacook, NH


Summary:

The city of Penacook, New Hampshire is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (1 traditional public high school and 1 public charter high school). The schools in Penacook generally underperform compared to state averages, with Penacook Elementary School being the most concerning, ranking in the bottom 15% of elementary schools in New Hampshire and having significantly lower proficiency rates in math and reading.

In contrast, the public charter high school, CSI Charter School, has a unique profile, serving a predominantly white (93.75%) and relatively affluent student population, with only 15.62% of students eligible for free/reduced-price lunch. This suggests the charter school may be serving a different demographic compared to the other schools in the Merrimack Valley School District.

Overall, the schools in Penacook appear to be facing systemic challenges, with the Merrimack Valley High School and Merrimack Valley Middle School also performing below state averages in math, reading, and science proficiency. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that considers the unique needs and circumstances of the local community.
