An overview of Hudson public schools
The federal directory lists 7 public schools in Hudson, NH: 4 elementary, 1 middle, 1 high, 1 combined or other.

The largest campus is Alvirne High School (976 students), and the largest elementary school is Nottingham West Elementary School (457).

Across schools that reported staffing, the median student–teacher ratio is 11.6:1, higher than the statewide school median of 11:1. A ratio counts classroom-teacher FTE against total enrollment, so specialized programs and part-time staffing can move it; ask schools for actual class sizes by grade.
About 17% of students in reporting schools were eligible for free or reduced-price meals in 2024–25. This describes the community served; it is not a quality signal, and community-eligibility schools can report differently.
