Somers High School

Public Grades 9-12
Summary

Somers High School is a public high school serving 384 students in grades 9-12 in Somers, CT. The school is part of the Somers School District, which is ranked 65 out of 158 districts in Connecticut and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Somers High School consistently performs well academically, ranking in the top 30-50 high schools in Connecticut over the past several years. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school ranked 30th out of 145 Connecticut high schools and received a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Students demonstrate strong academic achievement, with significantly higher proficiency rates on standardized tests compared to the state average. However, the school has a relatively homogeneous student population, with 88.8% of students identifying as White, which is much higher than the racial diversity seen in many nearby schools, such as South Windsor High School. Additionally, Somers High School has a very low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at only 4.17%, much lower than the surrounding schools.

Despite the school's strong academic performance, the lack of racial diversity may be an area for the school and district to examine and consider ways to promote a more inclusive and equitable learning environment. Additionally, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.8 suggests opportunities for personalized attention and support for students. Overall, Somers High School stands out as a high-achieving school, but the school and district may want to explore ways to better reflect the broader community and ensure all students have access to a quality education.
