Summary:
ZIP code 03254 has one public elementary school, Moultonborough Central School, serving students from Pre-K through Grade 5 in the Moultonborough area; because it is the only school listed, there is no within-zip comparison, so its results are best viewed against the Moultonborough School District and New Hampshire averages.
Moultonborough Central School enrolls about 245 students and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.7 to 1. In the 2025–2026 results, 57% of students were proficient in reading, 52% in mathematics, and 39% in science. Reading matched the district and was 2 percentage points above the state, while mathematics exceeded the district by 3 points and the state by 8 points. Science matched the district and was only 1 point above the state. Overall, reading is the school’s strongest current subject, while mathematics shows the greatest advantage over statewide results.
Performance varies by grade. Grade 5 reading was especially strong at 64%, and Grade 3 mathematics reached 61%; both results were above state averages. Grade 4 was the main area of concern, with mathematics at 44%, 8 points below the state, and reading at 50%, 2 points below. Science also deserves attention because proficiency dropped sharply from 67% in 2024–2025 to 39% in 2025–2026, although the change may reflect differences among student cohorts, testing, or instruction. The school’s statewide ranking percentile also declined from the 66th percentile to the 55th over three years, despite recent gains in reading and mathematics. For families, the overall picture is of a mid-performing school with solid reading and mathematics outcomes, but uneven grade-level results and a need to investigate Grade 4 mathematics and science performance.
