Summary:
The Rockingham School District in Vermont is home to two elementary schools: Central Elementary School and Saxton River Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade and provide educational opportunities in the Rockingham area.
Saxton River Elementary School has a strong track record of excellence, ranking 14th out of 169 Vermont elementary schools in 2015-2016 and 35th out of 169 in 2016-2017, earning 5 and 4 SchoolDigger stars, respectively. In the most recent 2023-2024 school year, both Central Elementary School and Saxton River Elementary School outperformed the state average in 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency. Additionally, Saxton River Elementary School boasts a very low student-teacher ratio of 9:1, which is significantly better than the 12.6:1 ratio at Central Elementary School.
While both schools have shown strong performance in certain areas, there are also some areas of concern. The reported $0 spending per student for both schools in 2018-2019 is unusually low and may warrant further investigation. Additionally, Saxton River Elementary School had lower 4th grade Math proficiency at 13.33% compared to the state's 30%, which could be an area for improvement. Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of the elementary schools in the Rockingham School District, with both strengths and areas for potential growth.
