Twin Valley Middle High School has a significantly higher percentage of white students compared to nearby schools like Brattleboro Union High School and Mt. Anthony Senior Union High School. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with strengths in certain subject areas and grade levels, but struggles in mathematics compared to state averages. Additionally, Twin Valley Middle High School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.5% to 57.42% in recent years, which is notably higher than the nearby Leland & Gray Union Middle & High School, which had a free and reduced lunch rate of only 16.34% in 2022-2023.

Despite these challenges, Twin Valley Middle High School has shown a remarkable improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 41 out of 46 Vermont high schools in 2017-2018 to 12 out of 46 in 2020-2021. However, the school's performance data also indicates notable differences in academic achievement between male and female students, as well as potential racial achievement gaps that the school may need to address to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all 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.
