Best Public Schools in Bradford, MA


Summary:

The city of Bradford, Massachusetts is home to two schools: Bradford Elementary and Greenleaf Academy. These schools serve students from diverse backgrounds, with Bradford Elementary having a majority Hispanic student population and Greenleaf Academy also serving a predominantly Hispanic student body.

While Bradford Elementary has a relatively large student population of 508 students, it consistently ranks in the bottom 30% of Massachusetts elementary schools and struggles to meet state and district averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Greenleaf Academy, a specialized high school with a smaller student population of 32, exhibits extremely low academic achievement, with 0% proficiency rates in both subjects and a concerning 0% 4-year graduation rate coupled with a high 66.7% dropout rate.

The data reveals a stark contrast in the academic performance and student outcomes between the two schools. Despite the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio at Greenleaf Academy, these resources do not translate to better academic outcomes, suggesting that simply allocating more resources may not be the sole solution to improving student performance. The findings indicate a need for targeted interventions and support at both schools to address the underlying factors contributing to their academic challenges and student outcomes.
