NEWBROOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Newbrook Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school with about 157 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 11 teachers, Newbrook Elementary School has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Newbrook Elementary School, located in the rural community of Newfane, Vermont, serves as a central hub for early childhood and elementary education in the West River Valley. As part of the Windham Central Supervisory Union, the school emphasizes a community-focused learning environment that integrates the unique natural surroundings of Vermont into its curriculum.

Beyond core academic instruction, Newbrook Elementary is known for its commitment to the "whole child," offering programs that prioritize emotional well-being, physical activity, and environmental stewardship. The school actively encourages parental and community involvement, viewing the local town of Newfane as an extension of the classroom.
