SCHOOL DEMOGRAPHIC DATA FOR SELECTED DISTRICTS

By: Soncia Coleman, Research Analyst

You asked for demographic data on enrollment for the last three years for the following districts, schools, or programs: Bridgeport, Fairfield, Monroe, Stratford, Trumbull, Six to Six Magnet School, Thurgood Marshall Magnet Middle School, and Regional Center for the Arts Magnet School.

SUMMARY

The data below is taken from the Connecticut State Department of Education’s Strategic School Profiles, which are published annually and contain data on student enrollment, student performance, and district needs, resources, revenues, and expenditures. For the purposes of the Strategic School Profiles, the Six to Six and Thurgood Marshall Middle Schools are counted as one school. The Regional Center for the Arts is a part-time interdistrict magnet school and is therefore not included in the profiles. We will provide similar enrollment data for this school at a later time. The Strategic School Profiles can be accessed via the web at http: //www. csde. state. ct. us/public/der/ssp/index. htm.
