Summary:
The Conway, New Hampshire, area has one public charter school, Northeast Woodland Chartered Public School, serving students from Pre-K through 8th grade. The school enrolls 172 students and has a 10.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio, offering a small-school setting for families seeking an elementary and middle-school education in one campus.
Academic results are mixed, with reading showing the clearest strength. In 2025–2026, 51% of students were proficient in reading, compared with 55% statewide. Reading performance was especially strong in grades 5 through 7: proficiency was 70% in fifth grade, 58% in sixth grade, and 72% in seventh grade, all above New Hampshire averages. However, third-grade reading was much weaker at 22%, suggesting that early literacy deserves attention. Mathematics was a more consistent challenge, with 32% of students proficient compared with 44% statewide. The school trailed the state in every tested math grade, including a particularly low fourth-grade result of 26%.
Science was the weakest subject overall. Only 19% of students were proficient, compared with 38% statewide, and fifth-grade science proficiency was 24%. Families should also note that mathematics and reading improved substantially from the prior year, rising by 12 and 15 percentage points respectively, while science declined by 10 points. The school’s statewide ranking improved from the 8th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 28th percentile in 2025–2026, showing positive momentum, although it still ranked below most schools. Because the school is small, grade-level percentages can change considerably from year to year depending on the performance of relatively small groups of students. The Northeast Woodland Chartered Public School district results match the school results, so state comparisons are the most useful benchmark.
