Windsor School

Summary:

Windsor School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 580 students in Windsor, Vermont. The school is part of the Mount Ascutney School District #86.

While Windsor School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio compared to the state average, its academic performance is a concern. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are consistently lower than the state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, Windsor School's 3rd grade proficiency rates were 29.03% in ELA and 30% in Math, compared to the state averages of 48.91% and 37.19%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly concerning in 5th grade Math, where the proficiency rate was 0% in 2021-2022, compared to the state average of 32.8%. Additionally, Windsor School has a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 33.28% to 36.15% over the past three school years, indicating a larger population of economically disadvantaged students.

The data reveals a concerning downward trend in Windsor School's proficiency rates over the past three school years, with significant declines in certain grade levels. Without information about surrounding schools in the Windsor area, it is difficult to draw meaningful comparisons to determine how the school's performance and demographics compare to its peers. However, the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Windsor School may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance, as research has shown that students from low-income backgrounds often face additional challenges that can impact their academic outcomes.

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.
