Summary

Farmington Senior High School is a small public school serving grades 9–12 in the close-knit New Hampshire community of Farmington, with about 214 students and a higher level of economic need than most nearby high schools.

The school’s current statewide ranking—71st of 89 New Hampshire high schools, or about the 20th percentile—remains below most nearby comparison schools, but it represents improvement from rankings near the bottom earlier in the decade. For perspective, Oyster River High School ranks 11th, Coe-Brown Northwood Academy ranks 12th, and Nute High School ranks 39th. Academically, mathematics is the clearest concern: only 13% of students reached proficiency, compared with 44% statewide. Reading was stronger at 49%, though still below the state’s 55%, while science reached 35%, close to the 38% state average and above several nearby schools. Science has also shown the most encouraging progress, rising from 19% proficiency in 2022–2023.

Farmington’s results should be viewed in the context of its small enrollment and its 36% free/reduced-price lunch rate, which is higher than at most nearby schools. The school performs above the Farmington School District in reading and science, but below the district in mathematics. Graduation rates have generally been below the state average, although the latest reported 0% graduation and dropout figures appear unreliable and should be verified. Another issue worth monitoring is the recent gap between subgroup results: female students ranked near the bottom statewide, while male students ranked closer to the middle. Overall, families may see a small-school environment with some positive momentum, particularly in science, but mathematics improvement, graduation tracking, and student-group differences remain important priorities.
