Summary

Troy School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in North Troy, Vermont, with 195 students and a student-teacher ratio of 13.2. Unfortunately, this school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Vermont elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 136 out of 137 schools.

Troy School significantly underperforms the state average on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 13.33% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 61% for 4th graders. In math, 0% of 3rd graders were proficient, compared to the state average of 34.25% for 4th graders. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 28.8% to 55.2% over the past few years, far exceeding the state average. Additionally, Troy School has an exceptionally high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 75.4% to 82.45% in recent years.

While Troy School struggles academically, some nearby schools, such as Montgomery Elementary School, perform significantly better. Montgomery Elementary, located 12.78 miles away, ranked 2nd out of 137 Vermont elementary schools in 2024-2025 and had much higher proficiency rates in ELA, math, and science. Despite the low academic performance, Troy School's per-student spending ($8,699 in 2018-2019) is on par with or higher than some of the better-performing nearby schools, such as Derby Elementary School ($8,699) and Coventry Village School ($10,856), suggesting that additional factors, such as student demographics and school climate, may be contributing to the academic struggles.
