Summary:
The city of Baldwinville, Massachusetts is home to two schools - Narragansett Regional High School and Narragansett Middle School. While Narragansett Regional High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate and strong performance on 10th grade MCAS tests, the school's overall proficiency rates across all grades are below the state averages. In contrast, Narragansett Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Massachusetts middle schools and has significantly lower MCAS proficiency rates compared to the state averages.
Both schools have high spending per student, with Narragansett Regional High spending $16,029 per student and Narragansett Middle spending $15,210 per student. However, the lower-than-average test scores and school rankings suggest that the Narragansett school district may need to evaluate the effectiveness of its resource allocation and identify areas for improvement.
Overall, the data highlights both strengths and areas for improvement within the Baldwinville school district. Focusing on addressing the performance gaps at the middle school level and examining the factors contributing to the high school's mixed results could be valuable next steps for the district's leadership.
