Summary

Jewett School is an elementary school located in Manchester, New Hampshire, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 453 students. As part of the Manchester School District, which is ranked 151 out of 158 districts in the state, Jewett School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of New Hampshire elementary schools over the past several years.

Jewett School's academic performance is a significant concern, with the school consistently underperforming compared to state and district averages on the New Hampshire SAS assessments in both mathematics and reading. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 32% of Jewett students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 42% statewide and 18% for the Manchester School District. In reading, only 26% of Jewett students were proficient or better, compared to 55% statewide and 28% for the district. The school's performance is particularly low for its male and white student populations, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of New Hampshire elementary schools for these subgroups.

Interestingly, Highland-Goffes Falls School, located about 1.9 miles from Jewett, consistently outperforms Jewett on the state assessments, with 46% of students proficient or better in mathematics and 45% in reading in 2024-2025. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Jewett School, ranging from 38.63% to 41.28% over the past few years, suggests that socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance. However, the school's relatively small class sizes and the relatively strong performance of its Hispanic student population indicate that there may be opportunities to implement targeted interventions and support to improve overall academic achievement.
