High Schools in Milton School District

Summary:

The Milton School District in New Hampshire is home to a single high school, Nute High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The data reveals that Nute High School has faced some academic challenges, with fluctuating performance and below-average proficiency rates in key subject areas compared to state averages.

Nute High School's statewide ranking has varied over the past few years, ranging from 40th out of 87 schools in 2023-2024 to 76th out of 85 schools in 2022-2023. The school's performance rating by SchoolDigger has also been inconsistent, with 3 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 and only 1 star out of 5 in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics (20%), reading (50%), and science (39%) were all below the state averages in the 2024-2025 school year, and its SAT performance was also below the state average.

While Nute High School generally outperforms the Milton School District in terms of academic proficiency, the district's overall performance is also below the state averages. This suggests that the challenges faced by Nute High School may be reflective of broader issues within the district. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 41.36% in the 2023-2024 school year, also indicates that the school serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may contribute to its academic challenges.
