Summary:
The Stratford School District in Connecticut comprises 12 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, serving a diverse student population across the area.
The data reveals significant variation in academic performance across the district's schools. Eli Whitney School stands out as a top-performing elementary school, consistently scoring above the district and state averages on standardized tests, with 60-80% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, Stratford Academy - Johnson House and Franklin School struggle, with proficiency rates 20-30 percentage points below the state average. This disparity suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the challenges faced by economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the higher free/reduced lunch rates at these underperforming schools.
Among the district's high schools, Stratford High School and Bunnell High School have similar student demographics, but Stratford High School has a slightly higher ranking and rating (2 stars) compared to Bunnell High School (also 2 stars). The fluctuations in the schools' ranking and rating history over time indicate that school performance can be dynamic, requiring ongoing monitoring and support to ensure consistent improvement across the Stratford School District.
