Middle Schools in Brockton

Summary:

The Brockton middle school district in Massachusetts consists of 6 schools serving grades 5-8, with a diverse student population. While the schools generally underperform the state averages in academic proficiency, two schools stand out as higher-performing: Ashfield Middle School and North Middle School.

Ashfield Middle School is the highest-ranked Brockton middle school, ranking 284 out of 493 Massachusetts middle schools. It has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (31.94%) and Mathematics (32.41%) among the Brockton middle schools, outperforming both the Brockton and Massachusetts state averages. North Middle School is the second-highest ranked Brockton middle school, ranking 343 out of 493, and also outperforms the district and state averages in both ELA and Math proficiency.

The Brockton middle schools generally have lower proficiency rates in ELA, Math, and Science compared to the Massachusetts state averages, despite higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios. This suggests a need to address the educational disparities within the district and identify strategies to improve academic performance across all schools.
