Best Public Schools in Zip Code 06255

Summary:

The 06255 zip code area is home to 3 schools in the Thompson School District, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. These schools serve a predominantly white student population, with increasing racial diversity at the higher grade levels.

Mary R. Fisher Elementary School stands out as a top performer, exceeding district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Thompson Middle School and Tourtellotte Memorial High School demonstrate more mixed academic performance, with some areas of underperformance compared to the district and state. The schools also face socioeconomic challenges, with high free/reduced lunch rates indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratios across the schools, the data suggests opportunities for the district to focus on improving math proficiency at the middle and high school levels, as well as addressing any underlying factors that may be contributing to the academic performance disparities between the elementary school and the upper grade levels.
