Wentworth School District

The Wentworth School District in New Hampshire is home to a single elementary school, Wentworth Elementary School, which serves a small student population of just 68 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of elementary schools in the state, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years, indicating significant challenges in academic performance.

Wentworth Elementary School's student body is overwhelmingly homogeneous, with 98.53% of students identifying as White, which is not representative of the racial diversity found in many other parts of the state. Additionally, a significant portion of the school's students (42.65%) come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the high free and reduced lunch rate. These demographic and socioeconomic factors may contribute to the school's struggles to improve student outcomes.

Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1, which is lower than the state average, this advantage does not appear to be translating into improved academic performance. Wentworth Elementary School's test scores are generally below the state averages in mathematics, reading, and science, with proficiency rates ranging from 35% to 52%, compared to the state averages of 41% to 53%. These consistent low performance indicators suggest that the school may face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education for its students.
