of 491 Connecticut Elementary Schools

Better than 90% of Connecticut elementary schools

Summary

Green Acres Elementary School serves 404 students in grades PK-5 in North Haven, CT, and is part of the North Haven School District. The school is a standout performer, ranking 49th of 491 Connecticut elementary schools (90th percentile, 5 stars) — the highest-ranked school among all nearby schools, well ahead of Montowese Elementary School (81st), Ridge Road Elementary School (92nd), and Clintonville Elementary School (118th).

Academically, Green Acres is consistently well above state averages. In 2025-2026, 5th grade ELA proficiency was 85.5% compared to 53.5% statewide, and 4th grade ELA and math proficiency were both 80.9% versus 50.9% and 52.1% statewide, respectively. The school also performs strongly across student subgroups: male students ranked 18th of 232 schools statewide, and special education students ranked 9th of 371 schools statewide. By upper elementary, Green Acres pulls far ahead of its neighbors — for example, 4th grade ELA proficiency is 80.9% at Green Acres versus 65.0% at Montowese and 60.0% at Ridge Road, while Wintergreen Interdistrict Magnet School and Shepherd Glen School trail at 23.8% and 18.5%.

Green Acres also excels in attendance and efficiency. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 8.3% is roughly half the state rate of 16.4%, and its per-student spending of $15,418 is more modest than nearby schools like Pond Hill School ($17,274) and Spring Glen School ($16,621). The school has shown a notable upward trajectory, jumping from about 125th statewide in 2021-2022 to 37th in 2023-2024, with the improvement coinciding with a sharp drop in chronic absenteeism. The one area to watch is 5th grade math, which has lagged behind the school's otherwise excellent math outcomes in recent years.
