Summary

North Street School is an elementary school in Greenwich, CT, serving 411 students in grades PK–5 as part of the Greenwich School District, one of Connecticut's top-performing districts. North Street itself ranks 8th out of 491 elementary schools statewide, with 5-star ratings and proficiency rates that run 30–45 percentage points above the state average in most subjects. It sits in a cluster of exceptional Greenwich schools, though it is edged out by North Mianus School (#1) and Riverside School (#2), while Old Greenwich School (#12) and International School At Dundee (#17) follow closely.

Academically, North Street is exceptionally strong, but not uniformly. The standout result is 4th grade ELA, where 94.5% of students met or exceeded proficiency—more than 10 points above the district and over 40 points above the state. Third-grade math (89.3%) and 5th-grade science (83.7%) are also outstanding. The one relative weak spot is 5th grade math at 76.7%, slightly below the district average of 77.5%, though still far above the state's 45.8%. Chronic absenteeism is low at 7.3% (vs. 16.4% statewide), but several neighboring schools do better—Riverside, North Mianus, International School At Dundee, and Glenville School all post rates below 5.3%.

North Street serves a highly advantaged student body, with only 4.38% qualifying for free/reduced lunch, compared to 59.87% at Hamilton Avenue School and over 54% at nearby Stamford schools like Westover School and Stillmeadow School in the Stamford School District. Spending runs $24,771 per student, higher than most peers but not the highest—Old Greenwich spends $33,050, while North Mianus spends just $17,213 and still ranks #1. The student-teacher ratio of 10.8 is typical for the district. Overall, North Street is a top-tier school with elite academics and strong attendance, though a few Greenwich peers currently hold slightly better metrics.

Thrilled with the school, quality and manner of teaching, and community. What other elementary school gives parents an option to send their child to school half an hour early for Chinese five days a week? Close Quote

There is a great community at this school. Parent are very involved and supportive of the teachers and the new principal. It seems like our son is progressing every week, bringing something new home for us to discuss and debate. At our first PTA, I was surprise at how detailed the teacher was in describing our son's strengths, and actions she was taking to address areas where he could improve. It felt more like a personal tutor that a teacher with 12 kids in the class. We are impressed with our son's development there. Close Quote

Once a jewel, this school has rested on it's laurels for many years and poor leadership has consigned it to mediocrity. Persistent failure to address problem teachers, poor communication with parents, lack of transparency, refusal to acknowledge and address poor results and critical policy failures make for an uncertain future. Although the glory of the Greenwich Public Schools have faded in general, there are still far better choices in the district than North Street. Close Quote
