Summary

Located in Kingston, New Hampshire, Sanborn Regional Middle School is a small public school serving grades 6–8, with 251 students, a 10.2-to-1 student-teacher ratio, and a relatively low reported free/reduced-price lunch rate of about 10%. The school is part of the Sanborn Regional School District.

Sanborn’s biggest positive is its recent improvement. For 2025–2026, it ranks 56th out of 138 New Hampshire middle schools, placing it around the 59th percentile statewide and ahead of most nearby comparison schools. Its mathematics proficiency is 46%, reading is 54%, and science is 42%. Mathematics and science are slightly above state averages, while reading is close to the state level. Science is a particular strength: Sanborn’s 42% proficiency rate exceeds the district and state rates and is higher than results at nearby schools such as Gilbert H. Hood Middle School, Seabrook Middle School, and Timberlane Regional Middle School.

The school’s recent gains are encouraging, but performance varies by grade and student group. Sixth- and seventh-grade mathematics are strengths, while eighth-grade math, at 37%, is an area for improvement. Seventh-grade reading is also relatively weak at 46%, although eighth-grade reading is notably strong at 64%. Sanborn currently trails higher-performing local schools such as Hampton Academy, Cooperative Middle School, and Hampstead Middle School, but it ranks ahead of several other nearby schools. Families may also want to ask about continued support for male students and students receiving special education services, whose effectiveness rankings remain below the school’s overall level.
