Summary:
The city of Granby, Massachusetts has only one elementary school, East Meadow Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has an enrollment of 407 students. While East Meadow's academic performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics is generally below the state averages, the school has shown some improvement in its ranking among Massachusetts elementary schools over the past few years, moving from 722 out of 932 schools in 2021-2022 to 637 out of 928 schools in 2022-2023.
East Meadow's academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation test scores, is particularly low in the lower grade levels, where the school's proficiency rates are significantly below the state's. However, the school's performance in Science is above the state average. With a spending of $16,627 per student and a student-teacher ratio of 13:1, East Meadow appears to have a relatively high level of funding and resources compared to the state average, suggesting that additional factors, such as curriculum, instruction, and support services, may be contributing to the school's academic challenges.
The student population at East Meadow is predominantly White, with relatively small percentages of other racial groups represented. While this data does not indicate any correlation between the school's performance and its racial makeup, it may be worth exploring ways to increase diversity and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students. Overall, the data suggests that Granby has room for improvement in its elementary school education, and targeted interventions and support may be needed to enhance student outcomes at East Meadow Elementary School.
