Summary:
Old Greenwich, Connecticut is home to a single standout elementary school, Old Greenwich School, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Greenwich School District. This school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Connecticut, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and impressive academic performance that significantly exceeds district and state averages in standardized test scores.
Old Greenwich School's student population is predominantly white (82.02%), but it has a relatively diverse student body with 8.13% Hispanic, 3.94% Asian, and 5.42% two or more races. The school's low percentage of free/reduced-price lunch recipients (1.72%) suggests a relatively affluent student population. With a student-teacher ratio of 11.5, which is better than 7 other elementary schools in the district, and a high per-student spending of $33,050 (for the 2018-2019 school year), Old Greenwich School appears to be well-resourced and providing an excellent education to its students.
While Old Greenwich School's academic excellence is undeniable, the school's demographics and resource allocation may raise questions about equity and access for students from lower-income or more diverse backgrounds. Further investigation may be warranted to ensure that all students in the Greenwich School District have equal opportunities to succeed.
