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 21 teachers, Rivendell Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 10:1. 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.

Rivendell Academy is a public secondary school located in Orford, New Hampshire, serving students within the Rivendell Interstate School District. The academy is noted for its focus on providing a personalized, community-oriented learning environment that emphasizes both academic rigor and character development.
