Academy for Science and Design Charter School

The Academy for Science and Design Charter School district in New Hampshire is home to two exceptional schools: Academy for Science and Design Charter (M), a middle school, and Academy for Science and Design Charter (H), a high school. Both schools have consistently ranked among the top in their respective categories in New Hampshire, with the middle school ranking 2nd out of 130-134 middle schools and the high school ranking 1st out of 85-87 high schools over the past three school years.

The academic performance of these schools is truly remarkable. The middle school has significantly higher proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science compared to the state averages, while the high school boasts an even more impressive 98-100% proficiency in these subjects. The high school's SAT performance is also exceptional, with 98-100% of students proficient or better in Mathematics and Reading. This exceptional academic achievement is likely due to the schools' efficient resource allocation, as evidenced by their relatively low student-teacher ratios.

The student demographics of these schools are also noteworthy. The middle school has a diverse student population, with a significant Asian student representation, while the high school has a more balanced racial makeup. Both schools have a low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, indicating that they are serving a relatively affluent student population. The diversity of the student body likely contributes to the schools' strong academic outcomes, as research has shown that diverse learning environments can foster innovation and academic success.
