Lisbon Regional School District

Lisbon Regional School District is a small New Hampshire district with three schools serving 266 students from preschool through Grade 12: Lisbon Regional School (Elem), Lisbon Regional School (Middle), and Lisbon Regional School (High). Overall, the district ranks near the middle of New Hampshire, at the 48th percentile. Its strongest academic area is science, while mathematics—especially in Grades 6–12—is the main concern. Because enrollment is small, results can change noticeably from year to year based on the performance of only a few students.

Lisbon Regional School (Elem) has shown the strongest long-term improvement, rising from the 19th percentile two years ago to the 58th percentile in 2025–2026. It is the district’s strongest school in overall mathematics, with 50% proficiency compared with 44% statewide, and it also performs above the state in science. Grade 3 and Grade 5 results are particularly strong, including 73% proficiency in Grade 5 reading. Grade 4 is a notable weakness, however, with reading proficiency of 29%. Lisbon Regional School (Middle) improved from the previous year and has reading and science results near or slightly above state averages, but mathematics proficiency is only 27%. Grade 7 mathematics, at 21%, is the district’s lowest reported result.

Lisbon Regional School (High) is the district’s highest-ranked school, at the 61st percentile, and has strong science performance, a 0% dropout rate, and the lowest student-teacher ratio. Its main weakness is mathematics, with 19% proficiency, while its reported graduation rate of 77.7% is below the state rate and deserves attention. Across the district, reading is approximately at the state average and science is above it. Families considering the district should view mathematics improvement, especially during the middle-to-high-school transition, as the central priority while recognizing the schools’ small class settings and science strengths.
