Barkhamsted School District


Summary:

Barkhamsted School District is a small school district in Connecticut that consists of a single elementary school, Barkhamsted Elementary School. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade and is located in a predominantly white, middle-class community.

Barkhamsted Elementary School appears to be a relatively high-performing school, with particular strengths in mathematics. The school's 4th and 6th-grade math proficiency rates are significantly higher than the state average, suggesting a focus on math instruction. However, the school's 3rd-grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate is much lower than the state average, indicating a potential area for improvement. The school's overall performance has been variable, with its statewide ranking and rating fluctuating in recent years.

Despite its small size, Barkhamsted Elementary School benefits from a low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, which may contribute to its ability to provide more individualized attention and support to its students. The school also has a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students compared to the state average, which could be a factor in its overall performance. While the school's strengths in mathematics are noteworthy, the district and school leaders may want to investigate the factors contributing to the lower ELA performance in the 3rd grade and work to address any underlying issues.
