Summary

New Lebanon School is a PK–5 elementary school in Greenwich, CT serving 375 students as part of the Greenwich School District, one of Connecticut's top-ranked districts. Although more than 61% of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch — a poverty rate far higher than most of its Greenwich neighbors — the school has climbed from the 35th percentile in 2021–22 to an extraordinary #10 in the state among 491 elementary schools for 2025–26, placing it in the 98th percentile with a 5-star rating.

In 2025–26, New Lebanon's proficiency rates surpassed state averages by 30+ percentage points in several subjects and met or exceeded the district average in 5th grade ELA, math, and science. This puts it ahead of many more-affluent neighboring schools like Old Greenwich School, International School at Dundee, Cos Cob School, and Glenville School. Its closest demographic peer, Hamilton Avenue School, has nearly the same poverty rate but ranks #161 — a stark contrast that shows how much school-specific leadership and programming can matter.

Attendance has improved dramatically as well, with chronic absenteeism falling from 20.4% in 2021–22 to below the state average of 16.4%. The school also invests heavily in its students, reporting roughly $44,000 per pupil in spending — more than double most neighboring elementary schools — which funds the interventionists, English-learner support, and family services that help a high-needs population thrive. For parents, New Lebanon is a standout example of how a school can overcome economic barriers and deliver top-tier academic results.

I've been a parent at New Lebanon for 3 years and it has been a wonderful experience. We have a large percent of hispanic students who require ESL which may be a reflection of the scores and responsibility should be placed on the parents to make sure that the children have the right tools. I believe the no child left behind policy is harming more kids than not. If a child is not ready to move on and does not meet the requirements they should repeat the grade to ensure they are on track and not holding others back. Close Quote

Small neighborhood school in the process of becoming a magnet school with the IB theme. Great staff and excellent support staff. Diverse student population. Test scores tend to be on the low side due to high (43%) ESL learners.

I've had experience with both SPED and Advanced children and was very happy with their education. Close Quote
