North Mianus School

Summary:

North Mianus School consistently outperforms state and district averages in standardized test scores, with 84-87% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 90-92% proficient or better in Mathematics across grades 3-5. This places the school in the top 1% of elementary schools in Connecticut, ranking 4th out of 497 schools.

North Mianus School's student population is relatively homogeneous, with 64.84% of students identifying as White, 13.01% as Hispanic, and 14.63% as Asian. This contrasts with the more diverse student populations of nearby schools like Riverside School and Old Greenwich School. Additionally, North Mianus School has a very low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at only 2.64%, suggesting a relatively affluent student population. This raises questions about equity and access to quality education for students from lower-income families in the district.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
