Best Public Schools in Hardwick, VT

Summary:

The city of Hardwick, Vermont is home to two schools - Hazen Union High School and Hardwick Elementary School. While Hazen Union High School has maintained a relatively stable performance, Hardwick Elementary School stands out as a school that is significantly underperforming compared to the state average.

Hardwick Elementary School's standardized test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are alarmingly low, with proficiency rates well below the state averages. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Vermont elementary schools over the past few years and has a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that students at Hardwick Elementary are not receiving the level of education and support they need to succeed academically.

In contrast, Hazen Union High School has maintained a relatively stable ranking and rating over the past few years, indicating a level of consistency in its educational quality and outcomes. However, both schools have a very homogeneous student population, with over 95% of students identifying as white, which warrants further investigation into the reasons for this lack of diversity and its potential impact on the school environment and student experiences.
