Summary:
ZIP code 03894 has one high school, Kingswood Regional High School, serving grades 9–12 in Wolfeboro, within the Governor Wentworth Regional School District; the school enrolls 729 students and serves a moderately sized community in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire.
Kingswood Regional High School has several positive indicators for families. Its 93.4% graduation rate is well above New Hampshire’s 87.0% average, while its 2.3% dropout rate matches the state rate. Reading is the school’s strongest academic area: 57% of students were proficient on the latest NH SAS assessment, slightly ahead of both the state and district results. The 11:1 student-teacher ratio may also support closer attention for students, although staffing levels do not guarantee strong test results. About 26.61% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, providing useful context about the range of student needs the school serves.
Parents should pay close attention to mathematics and science performance. Only 20% of students were proficient in mathematics, compared with 44% statewide, and science proficiency was 25%, compared with 38% statewide. Reading, mathematics, and science scores all declined by 8–9 percentage points from the previous year. The school’s ranking also fell from the 62nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 27th percentile in 2025–2026, with its rating dropping from three stars to one. The broader Governor Wentworth Regional School District ranks at the 39th percentile and has a two-star rating. Overall, the school appears effective at helping students graduate, but families should ask about current math and science interventions, recent academic improvements, and support for college or career readiness.
