EPS Integrated Pre-Kindergarten Enfield School District
Who goes here?
Here's a look at how the student population has changed over time at EPS Integrated Pre-Kindergarten, in similar schools, and in schools statewide. To determine "similar schools" we used the state's district reference group, or DRG, classification for the school.School-level and state-level data from State Department of Education, EdSight DRG figures are sum of schools for which DRG classification was available.
What does 'DRG F' mean?
"DRG" or District Reference Group -- often pronounced "dirg" -- is grouping of schools based on the town's wealth and student need. It ranges from A to I, with A being the wealthiest, lowest-need municipalities. EPS Integrated Pre-Kindergarten is a DRG F school. This database uses the DRG classifications available here, retrieved May, 2017.

School grade: Zero-to-100 score
Each year, the state grades every school. The state’s grading system called "NextGen" is based on more than a dozen different measures, including how many students are chronically absent, enrolled in arts and Advanced Placement college-prep courses and graduate from high school. The largest weight is given to test scores.
Smarter Balanced testing
The Smarter Balanced test replaced CAPT and CMT testing for measuring student performance. It's aligned with the Common Core curriculum. High school juniors in 2015-16 began taking the SAT in lieu of this test.
Bar charts show the percentage of students whose test results showed they were at grade level or above in the subject.

The state has set an expectation that English learners should improve their scores on standardized English and math tests by at least 3 percent each year. Below are the results of how many students met that target between the 2014-15 and 2015-16 school years.

Why is some data missing?
Data might be missing for a number of reasons: It might not exist; or it might be suppressed for privacy reasons because it represents a very small group of students, for instance. Here are more details on why some school profiles don't have as much data as others.
