There were 16,185 students enrolled in Stamford School District in the 2024-25 school year, 0.9% less than the previous year, according to the Connecticut State Department of Education.

Data also showed that most of the students were Hispanic, representing 54.4% of the district’s total enrollment.

Stamford School District roughly covers 21 schools within Fairfield County and has a main office in Stamford.

Among those schools, Westhill High School recorded the highest enrollment of 2,224 students in the 2024-25 school year.

Connecticut’s public schools generally have better student-teacher ratios than the U.S. average. According to data compiled by Public School Review, Connecticut’s average student-teacher ratio is about 12:1, meaning there are roughly 12 students for every teacher in the state’s public schools—lower than the national average of approximately 15:1. This suggests that, on average, Connecticut classrooms may offer smaller group sizes and potentially more individualized attention compared with public schools nationwide.
