Mountain View School

Summary:

Mountain View School is an elementary school in Bristol, Connecticut, serving 331 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. It is part of the Bristol School District, which is ranked 106 out of 158 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mountain View School consistently outperforms the Bristol School District and the state of Connecticut in standardized test scores, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA). For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 61.7% of 3rd graders, 53.3% of 4th graders, and 52.9% of 5th graders at Mountain View School were proficient or better in SBAC/ELA, compared to 54.4%, 50.1%, and 51.8% for the Bristol School District, and 45.9%, 49.4%, and 51.4% for the state. The school has also shown strong performance among specific student subgroups, ranking 27th out of 111 Connecticut elementary schools for Hispanic students in ELA and 32nd out of 70 for students of low socioeconomic status.

While Mountain View School has become more racially diverse over the years, the percentage of white students has decreased from 57.91% in 2020-2021 to 47.43% in 2022-2023. This trend is worth monitoring to ensure the school continues to provide a supportive and inclusive environment. When compared to other nearby schools in the Bristol School District, such as Ivy Drive School and Ellen P. Hubbell School, Mountain View School generally outperforms its peers in academic achievement, particularly in ELA. However, the school's fluctuating statewide ranking and relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggest that it may need to allocate additional resources and support to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
