Summary:
The East Kingston School District has one school, East Kingston Elementary School, serving students in grades K–5 in the small community of East Kingston, New Hampshire. With 108 students, the district does not have separate middle or high schools, so school-level results represent the district as a whole.
East Kingston Elementary is a strong-performing school with a five-star rating and a statewide ranking around the top 8%–9% of schools. In 2025–2026, 70% of students were proficient in math, 77% in reading, and 75% in science, compared with 44%, 55%, and 38% statewide. The school’s results were higher than state averages in every reported subject and grade. Reading was especially strong in fifth grade, where 92% of students were proficient, while fifth-grade science was also outstanding at 75%. The school has improved its standing over time, moving from the 82nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 92nd percentile in 2025–2026.
For parents, the school’s small size and reported 6.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio may support close attention and individualized instruction. Academic gains were strongest in science, which improved by 20 percentage points in one year, while reading rose 8 points and math remained nearly steady. Mathematics is the main area to watch: proficiency declined from 76% in third grade to 58% in fifth grade, although the fifth-grade result still exceeded the state average. Because the school serves relatively small grade-level groups, yearly percentages can change noticeably depending on the performance of a few students. Families may want to ask about class sizes, upper-elementary math support, student growth, and the number of students tested when evaluating these results.
