Putnam students
The Connecticut Department of Education has notified the Putnam School District that it was one of two school districts that achieved the highest District Performance Index (DPI) increase in CAPT.
Connecticut Academic Performance Tests (CAPT) are given to sophomores in all Connecticut high schools each spring.
These tests measure performance of students in reading, writing, science and mathematics. District Performance Index is used to measure the performance of school districts and schools in Connecticut.
William Hull, superintendent of Putnam Schools, said, “These results confirm and validate the work that is being done in Putnam by both our instructors and students. Last year, Putnam Elementary School was recognized as a School of Distinction. This year the district is recognized for CAPT scores at the high school. I want to thank the entire staff of the district for their hard work and professionalism, as well as, the support we have received from the entire community. This has definitely been a team effort.”
