Summary:

The 06484 zip code area of Shelton, Connecticut is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 4th grade. These schools, including Elizabeth Shelton School, Mohegan School, Long Hill School, Booth Hill School, and Sunnyside School, demonstrate a range of academic performance, with Long Hill School and Booth Hill School standing out as the top-performing schools in the area.

Long Hill School is the highest-ranked elementary school in the 06484 zip code, ranking 68th out of 493 Connecticut elementary schools in 2024-2025. It also received a 4-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger, the highest in the group, and outperformed the Shelton School District and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades. Additionally, Long Hill School has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 11.5, indicating smaller class sizes. Booth Hill School also performed well, ranking 164th out of 493 Connecticut elementary schools in 2024-2025 and receiving 4-out-of-5-star ratings from SchoolDigger in recent years.

While most of the elementary schools in the 06484 zip code area performed better than the district and state averages in academic proficiency, Sunnyside School lagged behind, particularly in 3rd grade English Language Arts. This could be due to factors such as the school's higher free and reduced lunch rate of 48.66%, indicating a higher percentage of students from low-income families. Additionally, all 5 schools had the same chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average, suggesting a district-wide issue that needs to be addressed.
