About ConnCAN’s
Report Cards
ConnCAN’s School Report Cards,
which assign letter grades to
every school in the state, are
designed to help Connecticut
families get information about
their local schools, highlighting
schools that provide a high-
quality education regardless
of race, wealth, or ZIP code.
This year’s School Report
Cards assign letter grades and
school lists for the 2011-2012
and 2012-2013 school years
using the the state’s new
performance accountability
system, the School Performance
Index (SPI). In line with Connecticut
state education guidelines, an
“A” grade on ConnCAN’s
Report Cards means that, on
average, students perform on
grade level. An “F” means that
students perform significantly
below grade level. The state
average is a “C.”
*Magnet schools with selective admissions.
