Dover Middle School is ranked 77 out of 132 New Hampshire middle schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. In mathematics proficiency, the school scores below the state average across all grade levels, but in reading and science proficiency, it performs above the state average. The school's 25.21% free and reduced lunch rate is higher than the state average, suggesting it serves a more economically disadvantaged student population.
