Summary

Danville Elementary School is a public school serving 283 students in Pre-K through Grade 5 in the Danville, New Hampshire, area. Part of the Timberlane Regional School District, the school ranks 98th out of 230 New Hampshire elementary schools, placing it in the 57th percentile with a three-star rating. This gives Danville a solid middle-to-upper-middle academic profile and makes it one of the stronger schools in its district, although it trails nearby high performers such as Swasey Central School, Memorial School, and Atkinson Academy.

Danville’s academic results are better than both district and state averages in all three reported subjects. Proficiency is 52% in mathematics, 57% in reading, and 41% in science, compared with 42%, 52%, and 32% across the district. Mathematics is a particular strength overall, especially in Grade 3, where 61% of students are proficient. However, mathematics declines to 43% by Grade 5, suggesting an area for attention. Reading follows the opposite pattern, rising from 51% in Grade 3 to 63% in Grade 5. Science has also improved substantially, increasing from 26% in 2022–23 to 41% currently. Danville outperforms district peers Pollard Elementary School and Sandown North Elementary School.

Families may also find Danville’s reported 8.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio favorable compared with many nearby schools, including Atkinson Academy at 12.1-to-1 and Swasey Central School at 13.4-to-1. The school’s ranking has declined from an exceptional 2015–16 result, and recent mathematics and reading scores have softened. Another important finding is a substantial difference between subgroup results for male and female students, which may warrant closer attention from school leaders. Overall, Danville offers above-state academic outcomes, improving science performance, and stronger results than most schools in its district, while leaving room to catch up with the area’s top-performing schools.

I have no clue where these numbers are coming from but Danville Elementary is a wonderful school. My son went there from K through fifth grade and it prepared him for the middle school and beyond. The teachers are smart, organized and caring. They sparked a love for learning in my son. Close Quote
