Northumberland School District

Summary:

The Northumberland School District in New Hampshire operates three schools: Groveton Elementary School, Groveton High School, and Groveton High School (Middle). The district as a whole is ranked 130 out of 158 districts in New Hampshire and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Groveton Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer in the district, ranking 121 out of 224 New Hampshire elementary schools in 2024-2025 with a 2-star rating. The school outperformed the district and state averages in mathematics and reading proficiency, particularly in 3rd and 4th grade mathematics. This may be attributed to the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10:1.

In contrast, Groveton High School (Middle) and Groveton High School struggle to meet state proficiency standards, especially in mathematics and science. While the middle school showed improvement in proficiency from 2023-2024 to 2024-2025, it remains below state averages. The district's overall low ranking and 1-star rating suggest that there is room for improvement across the district, and addressing the performance gaps at the secondary school level could be a valuable focus area.
