The teachers are not that good they are nice but aren't good.

Flood has great teachers but the system is horrible. There are a lot of fights. Sometimes the school can't do anything about it. I think that they should solve every problem.

I am not pleased with any dealing with Flood School, there is a lack of insterested by the students and teachers. the teachers are there for a pay check not give these children education, the parents are not encouraged to get involved with the school nor the chance to give there input. There is not enought extra curricular activites for the children from the south side of stratford.

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.
