Summary

Conant Middle High School (M) is a small public school in Jaffrey, New Hampshire, serving 241 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School District. The school’s recent progress is encouraging: it ranked 77th of 138 New Hampshire middle schools in 2025–26, up from 100th the previous year, moving from the 24th to the 44th percentile. It remains below the state midpoint overall, but the improvement suggests meaningful academic momentum.

Reading is Conant’s strongest tested subject, with 53% of students proficient, slightly above the nearby-school comparison average. Its 36% science proficiency rate is also a relative strength—well above Milford Middle School and Monadnock Regional Middle School, and close to Keene Middle School and Wilton-Lyndeboro Middle School. Mathematics improved to 36%, but remains below the state rate of 44%. The clearest concern is eighth-grade math, where only 24% reached proficiency, compared with 41% in sixth grade and 44% in seventh grade. Eighth-grade reading, at 47%, is also somewhat below the state result.

Conant improved in all three subjects from 2024–25 to 2025–26, including a particularly notable 17-point gain in science. Its special education effectiveness ranking also rose dramatically to 6th of 48 schools statewide, although families should view one-year subgroup results cautiously. The reported student-teacher ratio of 16:1 is higher than at most nearby schools, though historical reporting is inconsistent. Overall, Conant appears to be a school in academic recovery, with strong recent gains and competitive reading and science results. The most important next step is sustaining schoolwide improvement while focusing additional support on eighth-grade mathematics.

Open Quote I'm not surprised by the shamefully low ranking. In the three years we have lived in this town my son has not been assigned a single homework assignment.

I constantly review what my son has been studying in class with him and it is very frustrating because he is not permitted to bring any textbooks or class work home.

Sad to say it looks like the teachers union has a solid lock on their gravy train here, at the expense of the town's children.

If I could afford to stay home and home school my son or place him in a private school I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Whoever is running the SAU here should be ashamed of their lack of progress. Close Quote
