District-Level NCES Analysis
Rsu 10 operates 6 public schools serving 1,783 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Maine. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 combined, 1 elementary, 1 high 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 Oxford County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $19,761 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 203 Maine districts by per-pupil spending. See how Maine compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 32.5% local, 42.5% state, and 25.0% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 76/100, ranked #14 of 131 in Maine against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (10 AP courses district-wide), a 289.8:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 60.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.1% White, 4.0% Hispanic or Latino, 1.6% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Rumford Elementary, with a diversity index of 27.8/100.
Its largest campus is Mountain Valley Middle School, enrolling 376 students (22% of the district's total enrollment).
Mountain Valley Middle School accounts for 21.1% of all Rsu 10 student enrollment
That concentration means Rsu 10-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Rsu 10 student-counselor ratio is 290:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Rsu 10 is typically wider than the Rsu 10-aggregate figure suggests.
Rsu 10 chronic absenteeism rate is 60.1% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
