Summary

St. Albans City Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Saint Albans, Vermont, with 681 students. The school is part of the Maple Run Unified Union School District, which is ranked 39 out of 75 districts in Vermont and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, St. Albans City Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on standardized tests. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics were significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 8th grade, 72.58% of students were proficient in ELA compared to the state average of 59.84%, but only 45.16% were proficient in Math compared to the state average of 36.84%. The school also has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 65.49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2024-2025 school year.

However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8 students per teacher, suggesting it has the potential to provide more individualized attention to students. Additionally, the school's special education students have performed relatively well, ranking 8th out of 18 Vermont elementary schools with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. When compared to nearby schools, such as Fairfield Center School, which outperformed St. Albans City Elementary School on most ELA and Math proficiency measures, the school's academic performance is a concern. The school's statewide ranking has also been declining, from 93rd out of 133 Vermont elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 122nd out of 137 in 2024-2025.
