Summary:

The five public elementary schools serving grades K-5 in Westport, CT (zip code 06880) belong to the Westport School District — ranked 10th out of 153 Connecticut districts — and together enroll approximately 2,338 students, with all five earning 4- or 5-star SchoolDigger ratings. The district is exceptionally high-performing: proficiency rates far exceed state averages, with 4th-grade ELA at 82.6% versus 50.9% statewide and 4th-grade math at 81.6% versus 52.1% statewide.

Among the five schools, Saugatuck Elementary School currently leads the pack with a 2025-26 rank of #24 in Connecticut, up from #39 two years earlier, and posted the highest 4th-grade ELA (87.1%) and math (88.2%) proficiency rates in the group. Green's Farms School is close behind at #29 and has been consistently excellent, though it spends the most per student at $26,633. Long Lots School ranks #35 and stands out for exceptional attendance — just 1.1% chronic absenteeism, far below the state's 16.4% — despite being the largest school with 571 students. King's Highway Elementary School fell sharply from #22 to #52 in one year, showing a notable weakness in 3rd-grade ELA (64.1%) but strength in 5th-grade math (79.7%). Coleytown Elementary School is the main concern, dropping from #21 to #77 over two years with the highest chronic absenteeism (6.3%) and the lowest math scores in nearly every grade.

While all five schools far exceed Connecticut state averages, meaningful differences exist within the district. Mathematics is the biggest differentiator, with a 17-point spread in 3rd-grade math between Coleytown (68.9%) and Long Lots (85.9%). Higher spending does not clearly translate to higher achievement: Saugatuck outperforms Green's Farms while spending about $4,800 less per student. The student population is demographically homogeneous, with free/reduced lunch rates between 1.52% and 3.77%, and much of the year-to-year ranking volatility appears driven by cohort effects rather than programmatic changes. For parents, Saugatuck and Green's Farms are the current leaders, Long Lots offers strong academics with superb attendance, King's Highway is unpredictable, and Coleytown bears watching as its math scores and rankings trend downward.
