Summary:
The 06237 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Horace W. Porter School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 462 students. The school is part of the Columbia School District, which is ranked 89 out of 158 districts in Connecticut and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Horace W. Porter School has a mixed performance history, with its statewide ranking and rating fluctuating over the past three school years. While the school excels in some academic areas, such as 4th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, it struggles in others, like 3rd grade English Language Arts and 8th grade Mathematics. The school's predominantly white student population and high spending per student (over $21,000 per student) raise questions about the effectiveness of the school's educational strategies and resource allocation.
Overall, Horace W. Porter School does not appear to be a standout school in the region, with inconsistent academic performance and a declining statewide ranking. The school's leadership and the Columbia School District may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve the school's overall quality of education and better serve the needs of its diverse student population.
