PUTNAM — Putnam High School has been named to U.S. News and World Report’s list of Best High Schools. The magazine annually ranks high schools across the United States.     This year, the rankings included 29,070 schools from across the country and 193 Connecticut High Schools.   Schools were rated on school performance on state assessments (math and reading), college readiness of students, as well as student/teacher ratio.
Putnam High School ranked 44th  when measured against Connecticut high  schools  and  ranked  2007th   against  high  schools  nation-wide. The  magazine awarded silver medal status to Putnam High School.   Only 13 percent of all high schools across the country were awarded silver or gold medal status.
Superintendent William Hull said, “This is just affirmation of the hard work of the staff of the entire district and our students.   It speaks volume of the culture of learning that is at Putnam High School.  It also demonstrates the support that the school system receives in the community as well as the collaboration between the Board of Education, staff, families and the town.  We are proud to be recognized nationally for the great work being done in the district.”
