Summary:
The Cornish Elementary School is the sole public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Cornish School District in New Hampshire. While the school has some areas of strength, its overall performance and rankings are relatively low compared to other elementary schools in the state.
Cornish Elementary School is ranked 135 out of 224 New Hampshire elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in math, reading, and science were generally below the state averages, with some exceptions in specific grade levels. For example, 4th-grade math proficiency was 62%, well above the state average, while 6th-grade math proficiency was only 21%, well below the state average. This suggests the school may be struggling to maintain consistent academic achievement across all grades.
The Cornish School District as a whole is ranked 109 out of 158 districts in New Hampshire and is also rated 2 stars out of 5. Cornish Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1, and its free and reduced-price lunch rate is only 4.41%, which is significantly lower than the state average. This indicates the school serves a relatively affluent student population, which may contribute to its academic performance but also raises questions about equity and access for students from lower-income backgrounds.
