2022 Best Schools in Danbury

Wooster School

• Private School
• DANBURY, CT
• 4-12
• Rating 3.78 out of 5  80 reviews

Parent: My son like all children, was born with a “love of learning”. As Brayan started progressing in the school district, he became bored, complacent, and restless. His “love of learning” quickly deteriorated and began to manifest as behavioral issues that included acting out and apathy toward learning.
The solution was simple. We found Wooster, a school that challenged him enough to feed his “love of learning”, acknowledge his individuality, and guide him to “do the right thing”.
Our experience at Wooster has been exceptional. The teachers are truly invested in my child’s education and his growth as learner. Adjustments are made as needed to meet the needs of the student. Small class sizes and leveled learning have enabled my children to gain confidence in their learning abilities.

Immaculate High School

• Private School
• DANBURY, CT
• 9-12
• Rating 4.27 out of 5  148 reviews

Junior: I am currently a junior attending Immaculate High School, and, based on my own personal experiences, I can safely say it is one of the best schools incoming students can go to after middle school. The teachers and staff are extremely supportive, doing everything they can to make sure the students will succeed in their academics, interests, and futures. There are many clubs, sports, and other extracurriculars to participate in as a way to engage with the community and be part of something. Classroom peers are helpful and accepting of one another, and it is easy to make friends that can last a lifetime. IHS is definitely a school to get involved with, and it will guarantee the support of its students in whatever they choose to pursue later on in life!

Western Connecticut Academy for International Studies

• Danbury School District, CT
• K-5
• Rating 4.5 out of 5  2 reviews

Sophomore: I overall enjoy Western Connecticut State University. One of my biggest reasons why it was one of my top schools were because not too many schools have my major which is Cyber Security. Western is giving me the confidence and resources I need to fulfill my career. I would honestly recommend this school to a friend.

Danbury High School

• Danbury School District, CT
• 9-12
• Rating 3.74 out of 5  686 reviews

Senior: As a current student at Danbury High School, this school has so much to offer! The diversity is amazing and there are many students from different backgrounds. Being in a diverse school community, I've learned how to speak Portuguese and practice my Spanish! Furthermore, academics are good but need some improvement. There are teachers who genuinely care about a student's education and want the best, but there are also teachers who just want to get the job done. I would say the college readiness is good, although, students who come from parents with a college degree typically tend to know the system more than students who do not have parents with a college degree. By the near end of a student's junior and senior year, counselors meet up with the student to discuss their college plans. Overall, DHS is a great school with multiple opportunities for every student.

Henry Abbott Technical High School

• Public School
• DANBURY, CT
• 9-12
• Rating 3.79 out of 5  77 reviews

Alum: I can't say enough great things about this High School, not only was it newly renovated when I attended back in 2010 but it is full of staff who is genuinely wants to see you succeed. You do half academics and half technical shop. Contrary to popular belief this high school WILL prepare you for college if you decide to go after you finish your trade. The non-shop professors are highly qualified to teach all of the subjects. You can choose to engage in a club where you will make friends outside of your classes. I was also part of the cross country team. The coaches are very supportive and will push you to be the best version of yourself! If I could change one thing about this school would just be the food. I am sure it probably has greatly gotten better since I left.

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.

Park Avenue School

• Danbury School District, CT
• K-5
• Rating 5 out of 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.

• Rating 3 out of 5  4 reviews

Freshman: I am currently in Rogers Park Middle School and the school is very welcoming with very nice teachers that will help you out in any way. Every month we have a award ceremony for the whole 6,7,or 8th grades to recognize the work that you have done. I am personally a 6th grader and I already know the school like the back of my hand. This school has a lot of options for music and arts and they have a lot of heritage. I definitely recommend RPMS.
