Abstract
This study compared Connecticut's small schools with their larger, non-city counterparts on the basis of standardized student achievement scores and high school course offerings. In this study, a "small" district included any Connecticut public school district with fewer than 2,500 students. A "small" high school was defined as having fewer than 150 students per grade. No significant differences were found between large and small school districts with respect to student achievement scores. Some significant differences were found among large, medium, and small high schools with respect to high school course offerings
