Summary

Stillmeadow School is a K-5 elementary school in Stamford, CT, serving 587 students. It is part of the Stamford School District, which ranks in the bottom 16% of Connecticut districts. About 54% of Stillmeadow students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and the school has a 12.3 student-teacher ratio and per-student spending of $18,134. One clear strength is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 14.2% in 2025-2026, well below the district's 19.8% and the state's 16.4%.

Stillmeadow's state ranking has slipped from the 44th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 31st percentile in 2025-2026. Among nearby Stamford schools, that puts it ahead of Hart School (28th) and Roxbury School (24th), but behind Newfield School (32nd), Westover School (33rd), and Strawberry Hill an ext. of Rogers International (49th). Test scores are mixed. Third-grade math is a bright spot, with 48.8% proficiency versus a 38.0% district average. But 4th and 5th grade scores lag behind state averages, and year-to-year swings are large. Notably, the Stamford Charter School for Excellence, with a similar share of low-income students, ranks in the 70th percentile and posts much higher proficiency rates.

The most serious concern is for economically disadvantaged students. Those students ranked in the 6th percentile statewide in both 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, a steep drop from the 49th percentile two years ago — and since a majority of the school qualifies for free/reduced-price lunch, this affects most of the student body. Families may also compare Stillmeadow to top-ranked schools nearby like North Mianus School (ranked #1 in Connecticut) and International School At Dundee (97th percentile) in the Greenwich School District, which show far higher proficiency but serve far fewer low-income families. Overall, Stillmeadow offers good attendance and early-grade math instruction, but the equity gap for low-income students is the issue that deserves the most attention from school leaders and families alike.
