The schools in this district serve a diverse student population and exhibit a wide range of performance levels, with some standout institutions and others facing significant challenges.

One of the top-performing schools in the district is Eli Whitney School, an elementary school that consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests, with 60-80% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
