Summary:
The 03581 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, the Edward Fenn School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. While the school is part of the Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School District, which is ranked 97 out of 158 districts in New Hampshire, the Edward Fenn School's statewide ranking has been declining in recent years, from 113 out of 237 elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 156 out of 224 in 2024-2025.
The school's academic performance is a mixed bag, with proficiency rates in mathematics and reading falling below the state averages, while science proficiency is slightly above the state average. Specifically, the school's mathematics proficiency rates range from 27% to 58% across different grade levels, compared to the state average of 40-53%, and its reading proficiency rates range from 30% to 50%, compared to the state average of 49-57%. However, the school's science proficiency rate is 39%, slightly higher than the state average of 38%.
With a student-teacher ratio of 9.8, the Edward Fenn School is a relatively small elementary school, with 147 students enrolled. Additionally, 32.65% of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students compared to the state average. These factors, along with the school's declining statewide ranking, suggest that the Edward Fenn School may be facing some challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and further analysis would be needed to identify areas for improvement.
