Summary:

The city of Orleans, Vermont is home to two schools - Lake Region Union High School and Orleans Elementary School. While the high school is performing relatively well, ranking 19th out of 42 Vermont high schools, the elementary school is struggling, ranking 90th out of 133 Vermont elementary schools.

Lake Region Union High School has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 82%.

Both schools serve communities with significant socioeconomic challenges, as indicated by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch - 57.51% at Lake Region Union High School and 75.76% at Orleans Elementary School. This suggests the need for additional resources and targeted interventions to support student learning and address potential barriers to academic success.
