The school is part of the Norwalk School District, which is ranked 118 out of 156 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Wolfpit Integrated Arts Elementary School faces significant challenges in academic performance, with proficiency rates below the state and district averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.7% to 23.7% over the past few years, may be contributing to its academic struggles. However, the school's diverse student population and the relatively strong performance of certain subgroups, such as Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, suggest that the school has the potential to improve its overall academic outcomes with the right interventions and support.

Comparing Wolfpit Integrated Arts Elementary School to the nearby high-performing schools in the Westport School District, such as King's Highway Elementary School and Saugatuck Elementary School, highlights the significant disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes within the broader region, which may warrant further investigation and targeted efforts to address these inequities.

Open Quote A hidden gem. A small but mighty school with great teachers, active parents who actually volunteer, schoolwide events, field trips, enrichment after school programs, you name it. Every teacher knows my children's names, and it feels like a family. I am so glad we chose to live here and send our kids to Wolfpit. Close Quote
