Shoreham Elementary School is a small public elementary school in Shoreham, Vermont, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 76 students. The school is part of the Addison Central Unified Union School District #55.

Shoreham Elementary School stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (100%) compared to nearby schools like Neshobe School and Middlebury ID #4 School.

For example, Shoreham's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 38.1% compared to the state average of 48.91%, and its 3rd grade Mathematics proficiency rate was 23.81% compared to the state average of 37.19%.

Despite these challenges, Shoreham Elementary School has some unique strengths, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.6 students per teacher, and a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (23.68%) compared to some nearby schools like Salisbury Community School (47.69%) and Otter Creek Academy at Leicester Sudbury and Whiting (42.71%). By closely examining the data and learning from the successes of higher-performing nearby schools, Shoreham Elementary School may be able to identify strategies to enhance its educational offerings and better serve its students.

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.
