Canton School District

The Canton School District in Connecticut is home to four high-performing schools, including one elementary school, two middle schools, and one high school. The district is known for its strong academic programs and consistently ranks among the top schools in the state.

Canton High School stands out as the district's top-performing school, consistently ranking among the top 10-15 high schools in Connecticut. The school boasts impressive test scores, with 80.8% of 11th graders proficient or better in ELA and 49.5% proficient or better in Math on the SAT. Additionally, the school has a high 4-year graduation rate of 88.4%. Cherry Brook Primary School is another standout, ranking among the top 7-166 elementary schools in the state and earning 3-5 stars from SchoolDigger.

The other schools in the district, Canton Intermediate School and Canton Middle School, also perform well, with many grades exceeding state averages in ELA, Math, and Science. The district's investment in education, as evidenced by its higher-than-average spending per student and low student-teacher ratios, may be a contributing factor to its overall strong performance. However, the district's relatively high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools are a potential area of concern that the district may want to address.
