Summary:
The city of Storrs Mansfield, Connecticut is home to 3 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. These schools are part of the Regional School District 19 and the Mansfield School District.
Among the standout schools in the area, Mansfield Middle School is a top performer, ranking 24th out of 275 Connecticut middle schools in 2020-2021 and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school consistently achieves high proficiency rates on state assessments, significantly exceeding the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In contrast, E.O. Smith High School has a more socioeconomically advantaged student population, with a lower free and reduced lunch rate of 23.67%, and has maintained a strong ranking and rating over the past few years.
The data also reveals differences in student demographics and per-student spending across the schools. Mansfield Elementary at Goodwin has a more diverse student population, with 59.79% white students, and the highest per-student spending at $26,616, though this does not necessarily translate to higher test scores compared to the other schools. These findings suggest that factors beyond just funding, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, play a significant role in student achievement.
