Summary

Lake Street School is an elementary school in Vernon, Connecticut, serving 242 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. This school stands out as a strong performer within the Vernon School District, which is ranked 98 out of 156 districts in the state.

One of Lake Street School's key strengths is its consistent academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA). In 2024-2025, 69.4% of 3rd graders, 66.7% of 4th graders, and 65.2% of 5th graders were proficient or better in SBAC/ELA, outperforming the district scores of 49.4%, 55.9%, and 56.4%, respectively. The school's mathematics performance is also strong, with 50% of 3rd graders, 61.9% of 4th graders, and 53.3% of 5th graders proficient or better in SBAC/Mathematics, compared to the district scores of 46.8%, 55.4%, and 51.4%.

Compared to nearby schools, Lake Street School stands out for its relatively lower percentage of free and reduced-lunch recipients, at 42.56% in 2023-2024, and a more favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.4 in the same year. These factors may contribute to the school's academic success. However, the school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as white students, should be closely monitored to ensure equitable outcomes for all students.
