Summary

Weston Elementary School is a public school in Manchester, New Hampshire, serving about 438 students in prekindergarten through fourth grade as part of the Manchester School District. The school serves a relatively large and diverse neighborhood population, with a 12.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio and about 37% of students participating in free or reduced-price lunch programs.

Weston’s academic results show encouraging improvement, although the school remains below state averages. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, math proficiency rose from 21% to 33%, while reading proficiency increased from 22% to 39%. The latest results are above the Manchester School District averages of 20% in math and 31% in reading, but below New Hampshire averages of 44% and 55%. Weston ranked in the 13th statewide percentile in 2025–2026, improving from the 5th percentile four years earlier. Fourth-grade reading is a relative strength at 42%, while fourth-grade math, at 29%, is the clearest academic concern. The school’s English Language Learner results have also been notably strong in at least one recent comparison, while special education outcomes remain an area needing focused attention.

Among nearby traditional schools, Weston performs below Green Acres School, Smyth Road School, and Webster School, but above Gossler Park School and McDonough School in both latest subjects. Its results are fairly close to Jewett School. Nearby charter options, Polaris Charter School and Mill Falls Charter School, have substantially higher rankings and proficiency rates, but they are much smaller and serve different grade spans and student populations. Overall, Weston appears to be making steady progress while still having significant room to improve.
