In brief

Oxoboxo River’s schools, in brief

Holds up better next to similar towns

Against all Connecticut districts, Oxoboxo River beats only 38%. Against the 72 towns with similar household incomes, it beats 65%. Part of the low grade reflects local incomes rather than the schools alone. How it compares ↓

Which school depends on your street

With three elementary schools, the school a child attends depends on your address. Elementary grades range from C+ to B+, so it’s worth checking the specific school, not just the town. After that, everyone goes to Leonard J. Tyl Middle School and Montville High School. Montville sends its kids to all the same schools. See the path ↓

Reading is above the state; math is just below

Reading proficiency is 53%, 3 points above the state. Math is 36%, 1 point below the state. Both are close enough to average that small changes could flip them. Test scores ↓

This summary is written from the data on this page. Test scores are from 2020–21, a pandemic year, so treat small gaps with caution.

How the School Grade works
  • Results, not inputs. Math and reading proficiency on Connecticut’s state tests against the state average, plus the four-year graduation rate. Spending and class size are shown but don’t count. Tests: 2020–21; graduation: class of 2020.
  • The whole path. A town’s grade follows its kids through every district that serves it, weighted by students tested. Tests count 60%, graduation 40%.
  • Graded within the state. Each state writes its own tests, so districts are compared with the rest of Connecticut only. A+ is the top 5%, A the next 10%, A− the next 10%, the B range the next 30%, the C range the next 30%, D the rest.
  • What a grade can’t tell you. Test results track family income, so we also compare towns with similar incomes. Visit, ask other parents, and read neighbor reviews. It’s our own summary of U.S. Department of Education data, not an official rating.
