Summary

Nottingham Elementary School is a public school serving grades PK-8 in Nottingham, New Hampshire, part of the Nottingham School District. The school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of New Hampshire elementary schools over the past 10 years and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Nottingham Elementary School outperforms the state average in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. In 2024-2025, 66% of Nottingham students were proficient or better in math, compared to the state average of 42%, and 67% were proficient or better in reading, compared to the state average of 55%. The school's performance is particularly strong in 8th grade math, where 88% of students were proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average of 38%. Nottingham also performs well across different student subgroups, ranking among the top elementary schools in the state for both female and male students.

Compared to nearby schools, Barrington Elementary School and Epping Elementary School, Nottingham Elementary School has significantly higher proficiency rates in both math and reading. However, the school's relatively low rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 6.75% to 9.57%, suggest it may serve a more affluent student population, which could raise questions about the school's ability to effectively support students from lower-income backgrounds and ensure equitable educational opportunities.

There is more than test scores that are special about our school. The climate, the staff, the students, and the community all come together to make this a wonderful place to learn. Close Quote

We love Nottingham School. Although AYP progress is an issue, if you look carefully at the results it is only one subpopulation that is not making AYP. Our children have overall had wonderful teachers at this school. They are testing above grade level in all subjects, so the school must be doing something right. We love the small environment, and knowing the students and parents in the community. When we have had issues, we have had positive interactions with the teachers to resolve the issues. The one area that can be improved is to have more opportunities for accelerated students, but we also feel that it is our job as parents to provide those opportunities for our kids as well, so that is exactly what we are doing. We are very happy. Close Quote

Nottingham School is in it's fifth year of not making AYP for both reading and math. The administration is lacking in both competence and leadership. There are some very talented teachers employed here, but too many who are just not good enough. Our children have experienced both the best and worst teachers. Close Quote
