Summary:
The Green Mountain Unified School District #77 in Vermont is home to two elementary schools: Chester Andover Elementary School and Cavendish Town Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade in the local community.
Based on the available data, Cavendish Town Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the district. The school has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in Vermont, reaching as high as 13th out of 133 schools in the 2021-2022 school year and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Chester Andover Elementary School has ranked lower, between 75th and 83rd out of 113-137 Vermont elementary schools in recent years, with a 2-star rating.
The data also reveals that both schools face challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and chronic absenteeism. However, Cavendish Town Elementary School appears to have a lower student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, which may contribute to its stronger academic performance. The district and community should explore ways to replicate the successful strategies employed at Cavendish Town Elementary School to support the improvement of Chester Andover Elementary School and ensure all students in the district have access to a high-quality education.
