Litchfield Intermediate School

Public Grades

Summary

Litchfield Intermediate School is a public middle school serving grades 4-6 in the predominantly white and affluent town of Litchfield, Connecticut. With a student population of 189, the school consistently outperforms the state average in academic performance, with high proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels.

Litchfield Intermediate School's success can be attributed to several key factors. The school has a low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.8 to 11 students per teacher, which allows for a more personalized learning environment. Additionally, the school spends significantly more per student, with $21,479 and $22,465 spent per student in the 2018-2019 and 2017-2018 school years, respectively, compared to the state average. This investment in resources likely contributes to the school's strong academic performance.

However, the school's impressive academic achievements also highlight potential equity concerns. Litchfield Intermediate School's student body is predominantly white and economically advantaged, with only 19.58% to 21.13% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch over the past three school years. This is significantly lower than the state average, suggesting that the school's success may be partly attributed to the relative homogeneity and affluence of its student population. Nearby schools, such as Chippens Hill Middle School, Schaghticoke Middle School, and North End Middle School, serve more diverse and economically disadvantaged student populations and have significantly lower academic performance, highlighting the need for greater equity and access to high-quality education across the region.
