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.

Ledyard High School has been a fairly good experience for me. The Agriscience program here is my favorite part I have been able to gain tons of experience and certifications through my courses. Most teachers here are really good and you can tell that they enjoy teaching us. I wish there were better heat control and AC for the summer cause it gets pretty warm. I have been able to make more friendships in my time thus far here that have lasted longer than most in my other schools.

My experience at this school has been overall great. The best parts of my experience has been our agriscience program as well as most of the guidance department. My worst experiences with this school is that when problems with the mental health of another student occurs, then the focus is usually on them and it is hard for other students to get the help they need for academic and college prep for their future, because there isn't really anyone else to talk to.

The music department I would say was the best part of my high school experience. The teachers were also super helpful throughout my 4 years in high school, and I've had a lot of experiences that I was able to learn from.
