Summary:
ZIP code 03865 has three public schools serving students from prekindergarten through grade 12 in one feeder system: Pollard Elementary School, Timberlane Regional Middle School, and Timberlane Regional High School, all part of the Timberlane Regional School District.
Among the three schools, Timberlane Regional Middle School has the strongest overall academic standing, ranking near the middle of New Hampshire schools and performing close to state averages in mathematics and reading. Its strongest result is seventh-grade reading, with 61% of students proficient. Science is weaker, at 28%, compared with 38% statewide. Pollard Elementary School ranks lower overall, but mathematics improved substantially, rising nine percentage points to 45%, slightly above the state average. Third-grade mathematics is a particular bright spot at 57%. Reading is the main concern at Pollard, with 44% proficiency overall, 11 points below the state average. The school also has the highest free/reduced-lunch rate of the three schools, at 16.59%.
Timberlane Regional High School has the strongest reading result, with 56% proficiency, and its 92.4% graduation rate and 0.7% dropout rate are better than state averages. However, mathematics is the area of greatest concern: only 19% of students are proficient, down from 24% the previous year and 25 points below the state average. Science is also consistently weak across all three schools, ranging from 28% to 32% proficiency. Overall, parents can expect relatively low student-teacher ratios, stable graduation outcomes, and a middle school that performs most consistently, while the most important priorities for the district are high school mathematics, science instruction, and elementary reading.
