GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Danbury high school is a very overrated school. Teachers there are not good everything about the school depends on your last name and if your known in the town. Sports are not very good because none of the kids have the Dedication and Willingness to have fun and be good at a sport. Overall the school is alright. But if you are looking for a small town with a lot of nice people then you should move to Danbury because it really isn't that bad

I would say Danbury is only for a certain crowd of people. Most of the school knows each other and would make it hard for new people to come in. Also to improve the teaching staff, so they actually teach us.

Teachers are not helpful and some are downright mean. Treats student like trash. Rules are over the top even for the smallest things. Food is terrible. No quaitly teachers and too many subs.

The lower levels (elementary and particularly middle school) have some good to excellent teachers. Once your child gets to the 9th grade however it might be time to start considering other options. The high school offers very little above the basics and the electives (band and art) are far below par...

Just average and if your student moves to another district with higher education level they may find themselves struggling to keep up. Not much to offer outside of basic academics. High emphasis on sports though. Okay small school atmosphere, friendly environment but not much past that.
