STONINGTON, CT — The teachers in Stonington have been ranked among the best in Connecticut in Niche’s 2025 Best Schools and Districts rankings compiled this week.

The Stonington School District landed at No. 41. The schools earned a grade of A.

Niche provides profiles, reviews, ratings, and personalized recommendations for K-12 schools, colleges, universities, cities, and towns.

The rankings were based on student and parent ratings of teachers, teacher salaries, teacher absenteeism, teacher tenure, student-teacher ratio, and the Niche Academics Grade for the district. Read more on how this ranking was calculated.

Twenty-one Connecticut districts earned an A+ for their teacher rosters, but not every one of those scored the highest marks for academics. A district's grade for academics was, however, weighted most highly among all the factors in consideration for the teachers score.
