Together they enroll 2,582 students, from 310 at Yankeetown to 965 at John H Castle.

Sharon Elementary School is the academic leader, ranking 22nd of 1,015 schools (98th percentile) and holding that level for three years. It posts the top all‑grade ELA (74.07%) and Math (80.63%) results, despite the highest free/reduced‑lunch rate (45.99%) and second‑lowest spending ($9,096). John H Castle Elementary School is the efficiency standout: lowest chronic absenteeism (4.9%), lowest spending ($8,991) and the largest enrollment, yet still 5 stars with the top science score (72.63%) and a rising rank (84 → 61).
