Ledyard School District

The Ledyard School District in Connecticut consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The district's performance varies, with some standout schools like Juliet W. Long School consistently outperforming the district and state averages, while others, like Ledyard Middle School, struggle more with certain subjects.

Ledyard High School is a strong performer, ranking in the top half of Connecticut high schools and outperforming the district and state on metrics like SAT/ELA and NGSS/Science. In contrast, the high school's math proficiency rate is significantly lower than its ELA proficiency, suggesting a performance gap that the district may need to address. The district as a whole is ranked 104 out of 158 districts in Connecticut and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating some district-wide challenges that warrant further investigation.

The variation in spending per student across the schools, from $9,008 at Juliet W. Long School to $17,745 at Gales Ferry School, raises questions about the equity of resource distribution and whether the higher-spending schools are achieving commensurate results. Overall, the Ledyard School District presents a mix of high-performing and struggling schools, with opportunities for improvement and further investigation into the factors driving student outcomes.
