The standout schools in the district are William J. Johnston Middle School, which has consistently ranked among the top 50 middle schools in Connecticut and outperformed the state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science, and Bacon Academy, the district's high school, which has also ranked in the top 50 high schools in the state and exceeded the state averages in ELA and Math. The elementary schools, Colchester Elementary School and Jack Jackter Intermediate School, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with their students scoring 6-10 percentage points higher than the state averages in ELA and Math.

While the schools are performing well overall, there may be opportunities for further improvement, particularly in areas where the district's scores are closer to the state averages.
