2020 Best Schools in DanburyAbout this List

Wooster School

• Private School
• Danbury, CT
• K-12
• 57 reviews

Senior: One of the best gifts I have ever been given is a Wooster education. If you are prepared to buy into a community that prizes consideration of others in the form of Self-Help, Wooster is a wonderful place to enroll. Faculty across disciplines are consistently excellent, as demonstrated by their humility and eagerness to explore alongside students. Many faculty members (especially in STEM) have conducted extensive research in their own fields, and are more than willing to share their experience with students. Student led research is integral to DLIs (Deeper Learning Initiatives, Wooster's alternative to AP courses). It was not uncommon my junior year to spend weeks worth of class time researching anything from gender bias in children to more esoteric topics under the umbrella of stats. During these times, the teacher took a back seat and encouraged us to take ownership of our learning. If we ever needed extra support, he bent over backwards to make himself available for questions.

Junior: Choosing to attend Immaculate High School was the best descision of my life. I have made life long best friends, formed wonderful teacher relationships and always feel confident and comfortable in my school environment. Immaculate has many amazing clubs and sports activities to choose from. They have allowed me the opportunity to be an all state cross country and outdoor track runner two years in a row by offering an exceptional and supportive coaching staff! I love my school and wouldn't trade the expierences I have had there or the memories I have made there for anything!

Henry Abbott Technical High School

• Public School
• Danbury, CT
• 9-12
• 74 reviews

Niche User: The program that the school has set up is the best program I have ever taken. Helping the students go forward in a career they see themselves in or even to have as a good background. The administrators were talented in motivating students to do their best in both academics and in their selective careers. Although the school didn’t have as much clubs as I would’ve hoped for, there is room to change. I believe Abbott Tech Can and will someday have the chance to have after school activities for students and employees to make the overall experience a great one. For college readiness the guidence councilors help students be able to successfully fill out their college applications and have a better understandment of what field they would like to be in. Career development class has been very helpful and successfully landed students with a job for the summer after graduation.

Park Avenue School

• Danbury School District, CT
• PK, K-5
• 1 review

Parent: Park Avenue has top notch administrators who set high standards for their teachers and welcome the involvement of parents. The children are very grateful to attend this school. It has amazing teachers who feel fortunate to have been assigned to this elementary school in Danbury so they go above and beyond. They have an outstanding reading program. The kids also built an outdoor garden that is state of the art. The whole community is close and the parents know they are lucky to be so they are super sweet and helpful.

We moved here from another town that is better known to have great schools and have been blown away. Park Avenue School is socially and emotionally and academically so much better. The kids are nicer, the teachers are wonderful.

The principal is one of the best in Fairfield County.

Alum: It was a very fun school to go too, the teachers were very fun to be with and will teach with enthusisaum. The food was the best and every month there was a prize written under your tray and if you got it you would get a prize. The teachers did everything they can to give you the best possible education, some of them even had years of experience.
