Summary

Groveton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 121 students in grades K-5 in Groveton, New Hampshire, which is part of the Northumberland School District. The school has consistently performed below the state average in math, reading, and science proficiency, with only 48% of students proficient in math and 46% proficient in reading in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to state averages of 42% and 55% respectively.

Groveton Elementary School has a low statewide ranking, typically placing between 121-202 out of 224-237 New Hampshire elementary schools over the past 10 years, and has received 1-2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. The school's rankings for female, male, and white student subgroups are also below average, typically in the bottom half of New Hampshire elementary schools. Additionally, Groveton Elementary School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46-55% over the past 3 years, which is an indicator of the school's socioeconomic status.

The nearest comparable schools, such as Berlin Elementary School and Whitefield Elementary School, are also low-performing, with rankings and test scores similar to or worse than Groveton Elementary School. This suggests a broader issue with educational quality in the region. Despite the school's small size, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 8.6 to 11.5 students per teacher, Groveton Elementary School's performance has steadily declined over the past 10 years, indicating the need for significant improvements to address the root causes of the school's underperformance.
