Several schools stand out. Daniels Farm School is the top elementary, ranked 21st statewide with the area's strongest 4th-grade ELA (87.5%) and math (88.6%) proficiency, plus the lowest chronic absenteeism (2.1%). Hillcrest Middle School is the top middle school, ranked 15th statewide, and clearly outpaces Madison Middle School in 8th-grade ELA (78.5% vs 68.3%) and math (76.8% vs 61.6%). Trumbull High School posts a 99.3% graduation rate and 80.6% SAT ELA proficiency. Tashua School is the most volatile, dropping from #10 to #72 in one year despite strong math, while Jane Ryan School has slipped to the lowest-ranked elementary in the ZIP code.
All schools beat state averages by wide margins. Science is a hidden strength—Booth Hill School's 5th-grade science proficiency is 86.8% versus the state's 52.9%. Spending doesn't predict performance: Jane Ryan spends the most per elementary student ($16,443) but ranks last, while Daniels Farm spends the least ($15,516) and ranks first. The clearest weakness is high school math, with SAT math proficiency at 51% versus 80.6% for ELA. Overall, 06611 is one of Connecticut's top school areas; parents should watch Jane Ryan's decline, Madison's gap versus Hillcrest, and Tashua's ranking swings.
