According to the data, Francis T. Maloney High School ranks 102 out of 145 Connecticut high schools and is rated 2 out of 5 stars, while Orville H. Platt High School ranks 113 out of 145 and is rated 1 out of 5 stars.

The Meriden School District as a whole is ranked 111 out of 158 districts in Connecticut and is rated 2 stars out of 5, indicating that the district's performance is below average compared to other districts in the state. This is likely due to the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (over 70% in both high schools) and the district's focus on addressing the underlying factors contributing to the low academic achievement, such as improving instructional practices and providing targeted interventions.
