Summary

Coventry High School is a public high school in Coventry, CT, serving 395 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Coventry School District. The school is a consistent 4-star performer, currently ranked 34th out of 133 Connecticut high schools, and has shown a steady upward trajectory since its 2-star days in the early 2010s.

The school's defining strength is science achievement. About 74.7% of Coventry 11th graders are proficient in science, compared to 50.5% statewide — a margin that outpaces every nearby school, including RHAM High School (57.2%) and Tolland High School (52.4%). English Language Arts results are also strong at 67.4% proficiency, though Tolland (76.6%) and RHAM (75.2%) hold a slight edge. Coventry's subgroup outcomes are particularly notable, with female, male, and special education students all ranking in the 85th percentile or higher statewide.

Coventry has also made impressive strides in attendance. Chronic absenteeism has dropped from roughly 23% in 2021–22 to 11.0% in 2025–26, well below the state average of 16.4%. The graduation rate of 92.4% remains above the state average, though it has dipped from near-perfect levels in prior years. With a student-teacher ratio of 9.8:1 and about 22.5% of students receiving free or reduced lunch, Coventry serves a moderately advantaged population. The main items to watch are the recent graduation rate dip and the absence of reported SAT math scores in the data.
