I have had two children attend King Street Intermediate and highly recommend it. The staff is exemplary. My children have received a wonderful education while being cared for in a caring environment. They have also been exposed to many extra enrichment activities which are not available at other schools in the district.

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Connecticut used the Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT) to test students' skills in reading, writing and math in grades 3 through 8, and in science in grades 5 and 8. The CMT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Connecticut.
