District-Level NCES Analysis
Plymouth School District operates 1 public schools serving 388 students, placing it among the smallest districts in New Hampshire. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Grafton County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $23,640 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 161 New Hampshire districts by per-pupil spending. See how New Hampshire compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 59.8% local, 31.9% state, and 8.3% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 73/100, ranked #14 of 114 in New Hampshire against a state average of 51, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 365:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 6.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 89.0% White, 3.8% Hispanic or Latino, 2.7% Asian across the district's schools.

Plymouth Elementary School accounts for 94.1% of all Plymouth School District student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Plymouth School District a distant remainder — means Plymouth School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Plymouth School District student-counselor ratio is 365:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Plymouth School District chronic absenteeism rate is 6.3% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Plymouth School District has 1 school, including 1 combined. Total enrollment is 388 students.
