District-Level NCES Analysis
Rsu 68/Msad 68 operates 2 public schools serving 992 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Maine. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 elementary 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 Piscataquis County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,332 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 21 of 203 Maine districts by per-pupil spending. See how Maine compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 38.0% local, 48.2% state, and 13.8% 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 21/100, ranked #125 of 131 in Maine against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 334:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.8% White, 1.8% Hispanic or Latino, 1.1% Asian across the district's schools.
Se Do Mo Cha Elementary School accounts for 35.8% of all Rsu 68/Msad 68 student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Rsu 68/Msad 68-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.
Rsu 68/Msad 68 student-counselor ratio is 334:1 — 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 68/Msad 68 is typically wider than the Rsu 68/Msad 68-aggregate figure suggests.
Rsu 68/Msad 68 chronic absenteeism rate is 19.9% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
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 Variation between sub-units within Rsu 68/Msad 68 is typically wider than the Rsu 68/Msad 68-aggregate figure suggests.
