Summary

Newbrook Elementary School is a public elementary school in Newfane, Vermont, serving 96 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the West River Valley Union Education District #72A, which is ranked 22 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Newbrook Elementary has shown a mixed academic performance compared to state averages. While its 4th and 5th-grade students outperformed the state in English Language Arts, its 3rd-grade students struggled significantly in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Nearby schools like Guilford Central School and Townshend Village School generally performed better across grade levels. The school's relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 25.74% to 46.07%, suggests it may be serving a population with greater socioeconomic challenges.

Newbrook Elementary's academic performance has been somewhat inconsistent, ranking as high as 23rd out of 113 Vermont elementary schools in 2022-2023 and as low as 105th out of 148 in 2020-2021. This variability in performance indicates the need for a closer examination of the school's curriculum, teaching practices, and support systems to ensure more consistent and improved student outcomes. Additionally, the school's higher student-teacher ratio compared to some nearby schools may be a factor in its academic success, which Newbrook may want to consider addressing.
