Summary:
The city of Sterling, Connecticut has only one school, the Sterling Community School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 315 students. The school is part of the Sterling School District, which is ranked 115 out of 158 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While the school has seen a slight improvement in its ranking and rating over the past few years, it still remains in the bottom half of Connecticut elementary schools, with test scores consistently below the state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. The school's student body is predominantly White (79.37%), with relatively low percentages of other racial/ethnic groups represented. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population (40.95%) is eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting that the school may be serving a population with lower socioeconomic status, which could be contributing to the academic underperformance.
Overall, the data suggests that Sterling Community School is facing academic challenges and has room for improvement in both student performance and diversity. The school's consistent underperformance compared to state averages is a key area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to help the school better serve its students and the community.
