Summary:

The 06519 zip code of New Haven, Connecticut is home to 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. This diverse set of schools serves a student population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 51.9% to 89.72%.

Among the standout schools in the area is Sound School, a high school that ranks 84th out of 145 Connecticut high schools and earns 2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. Sound School boasts the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (52%) and Science (36%) on the SAT/NGSS assessments compared to the New Haven School District and state averages. Another bright spot is Betsy Ross Arts Magnet School, a middle school with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts across grades 5-8 compared to the district and state.

However, the data also reveals stark disparities in academic performance, with many schools struggling to meet state and district averages on standardized tests. For example, at John C. Daniels Elementary, only 18.4% of 3rd graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 45.9% statewide. These challenges are likely exacerbated by the high-poverty nature of many of the schools, underscoring the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of these communities.
