Billerica

The Billerica school district in Massachusetts consists of 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a diverse student population, with a majority White enrollment and significant Asian and Hispanic representation.

Among the standout schools in Billerica are Frederick J. Dutile Elementary and John F. Kennedy Elementary, both of which consistently perform well on MCAS tests, with over 50% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The district's only high school, Billerica Memorial High School, also stands out with a 93.8% four-year graduation rate and a 1.7% dropout rate, both of which are better than the state averages.

While the district's elementary and middle schools generally perform well, there is room for improvement, especially in English Language Arts, where some schools lag behind the state averages. The two middle schools, Marshall and Locke, also show variation in their performance, with Marshall performing better overall. The district may want to examine resource allocation and support to ensure equitable outcomes across all schools.
