Summary

Granby Memorial High School is a public high school in Granby, CT, serving 564 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Granby School District. The school currently ranks 24th out of 133 Connecticut high schools (4 stars), having reached 11th in the state in both 2022–23 and 2023–24. It serves a comparatively affluent student body—roughly 15% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch—with a student-teacher ratio around 11.8 to 1 and per-pupil spending near $17,600.

Academically, Granby outperforms the state by a wide margin. In 2025–26, 11th graders posted 76.4% proficiency in English language arts, 45.9% in math, and 75.2% in science, compared with state averages of 55.3%, 31.3%, and 50.5%. The graduation rate was 95.0%, above the state's 91.2%. Granby's strongest local competitor is Simsbury High School, which leads in every tested subject and graduated 97.7% of its students. Against Suffield High School and East Granby High School, Granby holds its own, leading both in ELA and posting math proficiency above Suffield but slightly below East Granby.

The clearest area for improvement is math, which lags far behind Granby's ELA and science results. Chronic absenteeism, while low at 12.2% compared with the state's 16.4%, has crept upward from 8.6% in 2021–22, and test scores have shown a modest cooling trend from their 2023–24 peak. Even so, Granby produces strong outcomes with moderate spending, and it outperforms nearby schools like Enfield High School, Bloomfield High School, and Windsor Locks High School by 20 to 50 percentage points in most subjects.
