Best Public Schools in Zip Code 06907

Summary:

The 06907 zip code of Stamford, Connecticut is home to two elementary schools: Springdale School and Toquam Magnet School, both part of the Stamford School District. While the schools serve diverse student populations, with high percentages of Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students, they are consistently underperforming on standardized tests compared to state and district averages.

Springdale School has a more racially diverse student body, with 56.28% Hispanic, 25.13% White, and 10.5% African American students. Toquam Magnet School has an even higher percentage of Hispanic students at 69.79%, with lower percentages of White (11.44%) and African American (9.94%) students. Both schools struggle academically, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics ranging from 19.3% to 39.8% and 15.8% to 36.1%, respectively, well below the state and district averages.

Despite Toquam Magnet School spending more per student ($17,891) compared to Springdale School ($16,897) and having a lower student-teacher ratio (10.2 vs. 12.1), these factors do not appear to translate into better academic outcomes. The high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, 54.56% at Springdale School and 65.85% at Toquam Magnet School, suggest that these schools serve economically disadvantaged communities, which may contribute to the lower performance. Overall, the analysis indicates a need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by these schools and their diverse student populations.
