Summary:

The 06379 zip code is home to a single high school, Stonington High School, which has consistently ranked among the top 21 high schools in Connecticut over the past few years. This small school of 556 students boasts strong academic performance, with proficiency rates in SAT/English Language Arts, SAT/Math, and NGSS/Science significantly exceeding state averages.

Stonington School District as a whole also performs well, with Stonington High School serving as a standout institution. The school's 88.4% four-year graduation rate is above the state average, and its 11.9 student-teacher ratio suggests a more personalized learning environment. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% is higher than the state average, indicating a potential area for improvement.

Financially, Stonington High School spends $19,215 per student, which is higher than the state average and may contribute to the school's strong performance. The relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 22.48%, suggests the school serves a more affluent population, which could raise questions about equity and access for students from lower-income backgrounds.
