Andover School District

Andover School District is a small public school district in Connecticut consisting of a single school, Andover Elementary School, which serves 239 students in grades PK through 6. Because the district contains just one elementary school, the school-level and district-level data are identical, and there are no middle schools, high schools, or alternative schools in the area.

Andover Elementary School is a standout institution by any measure. It recently earned a 4-star rating and ranked 82nd out of 491 Connecticut elementary schools for the 2025–2026 school year, placing it in the 83rd percentile statewide. The district itself is ranked 26th out of 153 Connecticut districts, also in the 83rd percentile. Chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at just 4.3%, compared to the state average of 16.4%. With a student-teacher ratio of 10.7:1 and per-student spending of $23,416, the school is well-resourced and offers small class sizes that benefit student learning.

Academically, Andover Elementary School outperforms the state by nearly 20 percentage points across combined SBAC tests. In 2025–2026, 4th grade math proficiency was 79.4% versus 52.1% statewide, and 4th grade ELA proficiency was 76.5% versus 50.9% statewide. The school also showed dramatic improvement, jumping from 151st place in 2024–2025 to 82nd place in 2025–2026. While no math scores were reported for 2024–2025, the available data points to strong, consistent academic success. Families should note that the district is entirely elementary, so students must transition to another district or school system after 6th grade.
