Summary:

The Shelton School District in Connecticut consists of 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 77th out of 156 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating, indicating consistent performance across the schools.

Among the standout schools in the district are Long Hill School, a top-performing elementary school with a 4-star rating and strong test scores, and Booth Hill School, another high-achieving elementary school with particularly impressive Math proficiency. The district's only high school, Shelton High School, also performs well, ranking in the top third of Connecticut high schools with a solid graduation rate and test scores.

However, the district faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate across all schools and potential equity concerns due to the wide range in free/reduced lunch rates. Additionally, the two middle schools, Intermediate School and Perry Hill Elementary School, have lower rankings and proficiency rates compared to the elementary and high school, suggesting an area for improvement within the district.
