Granby School District

The Granby School District serves approximately 1,688 students across four schools in Granby, Connecticut, spanning grades PK-12. The district is ranked 60th out of 153 Connecticut districts with a 3-star rating, placing it in the 61st percentile statewide and solidly above average.

Granby Memorial High School is the district's strongest overall performer, ranking 24th out of 133 high schools with 4 stars, boasting a 95% graduation rate and ELA and science proficiency rates more than 20 points above state averages. However, its math proficiency (45.9%) lags far behind its ELA score (76.4%), and its percentile rank has slipped from the 92nd to the 82nd percentile over the past three years. Granby Memorial Middle School is the most consistent performer, earning 4 stars in each of the last three ranking years with stable percentile rankings and the district's highest single-grade proficiency rate at 72.9% in 7th grade ELA. Wells Road Intermediate School has the best attendance in the district at just 8.2% chronic absenteeism, but its ranking has slipped to the 60th percentile, and 3rd grade math fell slightly below the state average. Kelly Lane Primary School has no current ranking or test scores due to its PK-2 grade span, though it historically earned 4-5 stars and maintains strong attendance at 9.5% chronic absenteeism.

Chronic absenteeism is a district-wide strength, with all four schools well below the state's 16.4% rate, and elementary schools post better attendance than secondary schools. Math is the consistent weak spot across every school with test data, and several scores dropped significantly year over year, including 8th grade science (down 14.2 points), 3rd grade math (down 15.1 points), and high school math (down 7.5 points). The district's overall 3-star rating masks meaningful variation: the secondary schools are top-quartile performers, the intermediate school is more average relative to the state, and the primary school remains an unmeasured but historically strong asset.
