and the
CT Academic Performance Test (CAPT)
provided by the
CT State Department of Education.
There are two sets of rankings:
-
Standard Rankings:

Percentage of 4th Grade students at the Advanced Level (Level 5) in Math, Reading, and Writing in the CMT;

- High Schools:
Percentage of 10th Grade students at the Advanced Level (Level 5) in Math, Reading, Writing, and
Science in the CAPT;
You have the option of (i) Ranking all schools in the State
of Connecticut (choose "All Counties" in the toolbar to the left),
(ii) Comparing individual counties (choose "County Vs. County"), and
(iii) Comparing all schools in a given county (choose, for example,
