Summary:
The Windsor School District has only one middle school, Sage Park Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 695 students. While the school's performance has declined in recent years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 126th out of 252 Connecticut middle schools in 2024-2025 to 140th out of 249 in 2022-2023, it maintains a 2 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Sage Park Middle School's proficiency rates on standardized tests are generally below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 8th grade proficiency rates were 45.7% in English Language Arts, 39% in Mathematics, and 40.6% in Science, compared to the state averages of 50.7%, 40.8%, and 50.3%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 50.5% in 2023-2024, indicating a significant economic challenge for the student population.
Despite the school's high spending per student of $21,666 for the 2018-2019 school year and a low student-teacher ratio of 10.3 to 1 for the 2023-2024 school year, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic performance. The data suggests that Sage Park Middle School is facing significant challenges in terms of student outcomes and may require targeted interventions and support to address the underlying issues and improve the educational experience for its students.
