What this school's NCES data tells you

Lee H. Kellogg School reports 70 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 11.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 6.5:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 46% below the Connecticut state mean of 12.1:1, signalling more teacher attention per pupil than the state benchmark. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.7:1, it is 59% lower, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.

Title I and federal lunch eligibility offer another window into the student body: 23.6% of pupils qualify for free meals, a proxy for household income that federal programs use to direct funding. The free-lunch share is 35% below the Connecticut average and 54% below the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 70 students per counselor, meeting the American School Counselor Association recommendation of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 18.6% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

On the finance side, the surrounding Canaan School District spends $38,676 per pupil district-wide, above the Connecticut average of $23,870 and above the national average of $16,593. Revenue comes 81.6% from local sources (property taxes), 17.5% from the state, and 0.9% from federal programs per the NCES F-33 finance survey. Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 61/100 (C+), calculated from 4 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
