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.

Nonnewaug's staff make the high school experience phenomenal because they truly work with the students to get an understanding and know them as an individual to better suit them with the right educational path. There is a need to work towards further diversification within the school to prevent ignorance. But besides that all good.

Beautiful new building and really engaging faculty. The building desperately needed to be modernized and now that it has, it has everything anyone could want. Overwhelming amount of AP or UConn ECE courses and the agriscience option is yet another pull for environmentally minded kids.
