Summary:
The city of North Grosvenordale, Connecticut is home to three public schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Mary R. Fisher Elementary School, Thompson Middle School, and Tourtellotte Memorial High School. These schools operate within the Thompson School District and serve a predominantly white student population, with increasing diversity at the higher grade levels.
Among the three schools, Mary R. Fisher Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer, with students exceeding state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Thompson Middle School and Tourtellotte Memorial High School struggle, particularly in Mathematics, with both schools scoring below the state average. The high school also significantly underperforms the state in SAT Math proficiency.
Across all three schools, the district faces challenges related to socioeconomic factors, as evidenced by the relatively high free and reduced lunch rates. Additionally, the varying spending per student and student-teacher ratios suggest potential differences in resource allocation within the district. These factors may contribute to the academic performance disparities observed between the elementary, middle, and high school levels in North Grosvenordale.
