Wethersfield School District

Summary:

The Wethersfield School District in Connecticut consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade.

Among the standout schools in the district, Alfred W. Hanmer School and Highcrest School consistently perform above the district and state averages on standardized tests, with particularly strong results in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Wethersfield High School also stands out, with a strong graduation rate and above-average performance on the SAT/NGSS assessments.

However, the district also has some schools, such as Samuel B. Webb Elementary and Charles Wright, that struggle with test scores well below the district and state averages. This suggests potential performance gaps within the district that may be influenced by socioeconomic factors, as the schools with the highest percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores.
