Summary:
The Slate Valley Unified Union School District #62 in Vermont is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. While the schools share a common district, the data reveals significant disparities in their academic performance and other key metrics.
The standout school in the district is Orwell Village School, which ranks 45th out of 113 Vermont elementary schools and earns a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Orwell Village School outperforms the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with 57.89% of 6th graders proficient or better in Math compared to the statewide average of 52.7%. In contrast, the other schools in the district, such as Fair Haven Grade School and Castleton Elementary School, lag behind the state averages and have 1-star ratings.
The data also reveals disparities in the student population and socioeconomic factors across the district. The schools have a predominantly white student body, ranging from 90.67% at Benson Village School to 95.08% at Fair Haven Grade School. The free and reduced lunch rates also vary widely, from 10.67% at Benson Village School to 39.77% at Fair Haven Grade School. These differences suggest potential equity concerns and opportunities for the district to address the factors contributing to the uneven performance among its elementary schools.
