Oak Grove School has a more diverse student population compared to the nearby schools, with a higher percentage of African American, Hispanic, and students of two or more races. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally lower than the state averages and the nearby schools, such as Putney Central School and Dummerston Schools, which have significantly higher proficiency rates. Additionally, Oak Grove School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 65.28% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Over the past three school years, Oak Grove School's statewide ranking among Vermont elementary schools has declined, suggesting that its academic performance may be declining relative to other schools in the state. The data also indicates the presence of racial achievement gaps within the school, with white students performing significantly better than their African American and Hispanic peers on standardized assessments. These factors present opportunities for targeted interventions and improvements to support the academic success of all students at Oak Grove School.

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.
