Summary:
The Ludlow Mt. Holly Unified Union School District #83 in Vermont is home to two elementary schools: Ludlow Elementary School and Mt. Holly School. While both schools serve students in the area, Ludlow Elementary School stands out as the higher-performing school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Vermont and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
In contrast, Mt. Holly School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 57th out of 113 schools in 2022-2023 to 136th out of 148 schools in 2020-2021, with a corresponding drop in its SchoolDigger rating from 3 stars to 0 stars. This concerning trend suggests the need for the Ludlow Mt. Holly Unified Union School District #83 to closely examine the factors contributing to the performance differences between the two schools and ensure equitable resource allocation and support for all students.
Additionally, the data reveals that Ludlow Elementary School serves a more diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic and multiracial students, as well as a larger proportion of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may be addressing the needs of a more economically disadvantaged community, which could be an area of focus for the district in promoting equity and supporting all students, regardless of their background.
