Summary:

The 06810 zip code area of Danbury, Connecticut is home to 10 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and no high schools or alternative schools. The schools in this area display a mix of high-performing and underperforming institutions, with significant disparities in student outcomes.

Among the standout schools in the area are Western CT Academy of International Studies Elementary Magnet School, which consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests, and Shelter Rock School and South Street School, which also perform well above the district and state averages. However, the Danbury School District as a whole is underperforming compared to the state, ranking 136 out of 156 districts in Connecticut.

Chronic absenteeism is a concern across all schools in the area, with rates well above the state average. Additionally, there is a significant achievement gap between the highest and lowest performing schools, with the two magnet/specialized schools, Western CT Academy of International Studies Elementary Magnet and DPS Early Childhood Center, having the highest performance and lowest free/reduced lunch rates. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for the Danbury School District to improve overall student outcomes in the 06810 zip code area.
