Summary:

The Goffstown School District has one middle school, Mountain View Middle School, serving grades 5–8 in Goffstown, New Hampshire. The school enrolls about 880 students and has a 12.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio. It is a relatively strong school statewide, ranking 42nd out of 138 schools and at the 70th percentile in 2025–2026, with a four-star rating. Since it is the district’s only listed middle school, families cannot compare it with another district middle school, but its test results and ranking history provide a useful picture of the local option.

Mountain View’s strongest area is reading. In 2025–2026, 62% of students were proficient in reading, matching the district and exceeding the New Hampshire rate of 55%. Reading performance was above the state average in every reported grade, ranging from 57% in eighth grade to 65% in seventh grade. Mathematics proficiency was 47%, slightly below the district’s 48% but above the state’s 44%. Sixth-grade math was especially strong at 55%, while fifth grade was the main concern at 40%, below the state rate of 43%. Science proficiency was 40%, just above the state rate of 38%, but six points below the district’s 46%, making science the clearest area for improvement within the district.

The school showed broad improvement in 2025–2026: mathematics increased four percentage points from the prior year, reading rose seven points, and science rose six points. Its statewide percentile also climbed from 55th to 70th, following a weaker 2024–2025 ranking. Overall, Mountain View offers above-state performance in all three tested subjects, especially reading, with solid recent momentum. Parents may want to ask about additional support in fifth-grade mathematics, science instruction, and eighth-grade math and science, where results trail the school’s reading performance. The available data does not include student growth, attendance, class sizes, or subgroup results, so those factors would be useful to review when making a more complete school decision.
