Explore Silver Lake Elementary School in Middletown, DE

We recently moved back to Middletown, and now my children attend this school. I am so pleased... more

*This school is rated about average based on how its students perform ... More on state tests compared with other schools in Delaware. However, test scores are only one aspect of school quality.

In most states, we show a Summary Rating which is based on multiple measures, including information like college readiness, student progress, and how well a school is serving students from all racial/ethnic and socioeconomic groups.

Delaware does not have sufficient information for us to generate a Summary Rating, which is why we instead display the school’s Test Score Rating.

Test scores

Parent tip

Ask the school what it’s doing to help students who are behind. Understand what on-track learning looks like, and ask the school what it’s doing to accelerate progress for students.
