Schools in Zip Code 03220

The 03220 zip code area is home to three schools in the Shaker Regional School District, including one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. Overall, the data suggests that the Belmont Middle School stands out as the strongest performer, consistently ranking among the top middle schools in New Hampshire and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, the Belmont Elementary School and Belmont High School have shown more mixed results, with the high school improving its performance in recent years but still facing challenges in certain academic areas.

Belmont Middle School's standout performance is evident in its consistently high test scores, particularly in reading, which exceed the district and state averages. The school's 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and statewide ranking of 35 out of 130 further highlight its strong academic standing. In comparison, Belmont Elementary School's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages, while Belmont High School's math proficiency rates are below the district and state averages, despite improvements in its overall statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating.

The data also reveals some interesting demographic insights, such as the relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at Belmont Elementary School compared to the other two schools. This suggests that the district may need to focus on addressing socioeconomic challenges and ensuring equitable access to resources and support for all students. Additionally, the relatively low student-teacher ratios across the three schools, ranging from 9.3 to 11.3, indicate a potential strength in terms of personalized attention and support for students.
