Not following - we don’t have county school systems in CT, they are town by town. I listed some of the best school districts by town - the list is not intended to be all encompassing.

What are some lesser known excellent towns for school systems?

I wouldn’t say they’re lesser known. There’s excellent schools outside central CT (Hartford County) and FFC. Example, New Haven County has Woodbridge/Orange/Bethany, Madison, Guilford, Southbury.

As an aside, even the “next rung down” schools are pretty good. They don’t need sparkling test scores to be a place to get a great education.

Yeah I guess in my head I know those schools aren’t in FFC but I sort of group them into that southern portion of the state

What are some of the next rung down schools?

Like Bethel, Milford, Branford, North Haven, Oxford, Southington, etc.
