Summary

East Farms School is a high-performing public elementary school in Farmington, Connecticut, serving students from kindergarten to 4th grade. With a student population of 502, the school has consistently been ranked among the top elementary schools in the state, currently ranking 52 out of 493 schools for the 2024-2025 school year.

East Farms School's academic excellence is evident in its strong performance on standardized tests. In the 2024-2025 school year, 75.5% of 3rd-grade students and 77.9% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, significantly outpacing the state averages of 46.9% and 51.4%, respectively. In Mathematics, 72.6% of 3rd-grade students and 83.5% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better, compared to 52.2% and 51.4% statewide. This consistent academic achievement has earned East Farms School a 4- or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years.

While East Farms School's performance is superior to many of its nearby counterparts, such as Noah Wallace School, it faces some challenges in the performance of its Asian and White student subgroups. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has fluctuated in recent years, reaching 20.0% in 2022-2023, which may be an area of concern. However, the school's investment in resources, such as a relatively high per-student spending of around $15,000 and a low student-teacher ratio, may contribute to its overall academic success.
