Summary

Roxbury School is an elementary school in Stamford, Connecticut, serving 545 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Stamford School District, which is ranked 125 out of 156 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Roxbury School consistently underperforms compared to the Stamford School District and the state of Connecticut in standardized test scores. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in SBAC/English Language Arts ranged from 26.9% to 31.1% across grades 3-5, compared to 28.8% to 40.1% for the Stamford School District and 46.9% to 52.5% for the state. The school's performance in SBAC/Mathematics and NGSS/Science also lags behind the district and state averages. Additionally, Roxbury School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.7% to 22.5% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Roxbury School to other nearby schools in the Stamford School District, it becomes clear that Roxbury is one of the lower-performing schools in the district. For example, Davenport Ridge School and Strawberry Hill an ext. of Rogers International, both within a 2-mile radius, consistently outperform Roxbury School in academic metrics and have higher SchoolDigger ratings. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and free/reduced lunch at Roxbury School suggest that socioeconomic factors may be playing a significant role in the school's academic performance, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by the school's student population.
