Total enrollment in public schools in Darien is 4,475 students (22.7 percent of the town population).[when?] 85 percent of the total student population attend public schools.[2]

The town has five elementary schools: Hindley School, Holmes School, Ox Ridge School, Royle School, and Tokeneke School. A $27 million addition was completed in 2000 to the town's middle school, Middlesex Middle School, and a new $73 million campus for Darien High School was completed in the fall of 2005.[3]
