East Haddam School District

The East Haddam School District in Connecticut is home to three schools: Nathan Hale-Ray Middle School, East Haddam Elementary School, and Nathan Hale-Ray High School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and have a predominantly white student population.

East Haddam Elementary School stands out as a top performer, consistently ranking in the top 40-70 elementary schools in Connecticut and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's 3rd-grade students excel in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, exceeding the state average. In contrast, while Nathan Hale-Ray Middle School and Nathan Hale-Ray High School generally perform well in English Language Arts, their Mathematics proficiency rates tend to lag behind the state average, particularly at the high school level.

The East Haddam School District has relatively low free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a relatively affluent student population. This could have implications for the availability of resources and support services for economically disadvantaged students, an area the district may want to examine further. Overall, the district appears to have a strong educational system, with standout performance at the elementary and high school levels, but may benefit from a focus on improving Mathematics instruction and supporting economically disadvantaged students.
