Summary:
The Danbury School District in Connecticut is home to a single high school, Danbury High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 3,590 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic students (58.75%) and significant representation from other minority groups.
Danbury High School has faced academic challenges in recent years, with its ranking declining from 91 out of 121 schools in 2018-2019 to 151 out of 200 schools in 2020-2021. The school's performance on the NGSS/Science assessment is also concerning, with only 30.9% of 11th-grade students proficient or better, significantly lower than the state average of 46.9%. Additionally, the school serves a population with a relatively low socioeconomic status, as evidenced by the high percentage (48.05%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite these challenges, Danbury High School's diverse student population presents both opportunities and unique needs that the school must address. The school's declining ranking and academic performance suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and ensure that all learners have access to a high-quality education.
