Summary

Dr. Franklin H. Mayberry School is a K-5 elementary school in East Hartford, CT, serving about 310 students in a high-need community within the East Hartford School District. The school currently ranks 408th of 491 Connecticut elementary schools (17th percentile) with a 1-star rating, placing it in the bottom fifth of schools statewide—an improvement from the 4th percentile in 2017-18, but still well below most nearby schools.

Academically, Mayberry's test scores are well below district and state averages. In 2025-26, just 11.8% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA and math, compared with district averages of 35.4% and 37.3%, and state averages of 47.3% and 52.2%. Fifth-grade results were also low, at 22% in ELA and 16% in math. Among nearby schools, only Silver Lane School ranks lower, while schools like Pleasant Valley School (83rd percentile) and Governor William Pitkin School (50th percentile) perform far better. The one relative bright spot is 4th grade, which scored 36.7% in both ELA and math—much closer to district averages and worth understanding as a potential model.

Chronic absenteeism is a major concern, with 26.9% of students missing significant school time in 2025-26—more than triple the rate at Governor Pitkin School (8.4%) and well above the district's 21.0%. Encouragingly, Mayberry's absenteeism was just 18.7% in 2022-23, showing improvement is possible. The school also spends more per student ($18,796) than several higher-performing nearby schools, and about 71% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. One genuinely positive finding: Hispanic students at Mayberry ranked in the 46th percentile statewide, a significant improvement from prior years and a real sign of effectiveness for that subgroup.
