Best Public Schools in Zip Code 06380


Summary:

The 06380 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Wequonnoc Magnet School, which serves grades K-5 and has a total enrollment of 228 students. Despite the school's diverse student population, it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Connecticut elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years.

Wequonnoc Magnet School's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics well below the state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 20.5% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to the state average of 45.9%. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (78.51%), indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at $16,139, and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.9, the academic performance at Wequonnoc Magnet School remains poor. This suggests a need for a comprehensive review of the school's strategies, leadership, and resource allocation to identify and address the root causes of the persistent underperformance. The Norwich School District must prioritize improving the educational outcomes for the students at Wequonnoc Magnet School to ensure they receive the support and resources they need to succeed.
