Summary:
Littleton School District is a small New Hampshire district serving about 567 students across three schools covering grades K–12: Mildred C. Lakeway School for grades K–6, Daisy Bronson Junior High School for grades 7–8, and Littleton High School for grades 9–12. The district’s small size means students may benefit from low reported student-teacher ratios, although those figures do not necessarily represent average class sizes.
Littleton High School is the strongest overall performer and has improved sharply in recent years, ranking in the 65th percentile for 2025–26 compared with the elementary and middle schools, which ranked in the upper 20s. Its reading proficiency was especially strong at 72%, well above the state’s 55%, and reading increased 22 percentage points in one year. Mathematics remains a major weakness, however, at 28% compared with 44% statewide. The high school’s 79% graduation rate is below the state’s 87%, while its 4.6% dropout rate is twice the state rate, so recent academic gains have not yet translated into equally strong completion outcomes.
Mildred C. Lakeway School has some solid third- and fourth-grade results, but mathematics drops sharply from 49% proficiency in fourth grade to 19% in fifth grade and 26% in sixth grade. Daisy Bronson Junior High School is a relative science bright spot: its 38% science proficiency matches the state and improved substantially from the prior year. Across the district, mathematics is the most consistent concern, while reading is uneven—strong at the high school but below state levels in the younger grades. Families may want to pay particular attention to math support in grades 5–8, middle-school reading, and the transition from elementary to high school.
