Summary:
Litchfield School District is a compact PK–12 district in New Hampshire with three schools serving about 1,115 students: Griffin Memorial School for grades PK–4, Litchfield Middle School for grades 5–8, and Campbell High School for grades 9–12. The district ranks in the 70th percentile statewide and has a 4-star overall rating, though performance varies by school and subject.
Griffin Memorial School is the district’s strongest academic performer, ranking in the 89th percentile statewide. In 2025–26, 71% of students were proficient in both mathematics and reading, well above state averages. The school also improved substantially over the past three years, making it a notable strength for families with elementary-age children. Litchfield Middle School showed the district’s biggest turnaround, rising to the 72nd percentile and earning four stars after broad gains in mathematics, reading, and science. Its science performance was 9 points above the state average, while Grade 8 mathematics proficiency reached 64%. Mathematics remains an area to watch, particularly in the earlier middle school grades.
Campbell High School offers excellent completion outcomes, including a 94.8% graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate. Its reading and science results are near or above state levels, but mathematics is a significant weakness: proficiency was 26%, compared with 46% at the middle school and 71% at the elementary school. Overall, families can expect a district with strong elementary achievement, encouraging middle-school improvement, and a high school where students generally graduate successfully but may need additional mathematics support. Student-teacher ratios are consistently low across all three schools, ranging from about 11:1 to 12:1.
