Concord

The Concord school district in Massachusetts is home to four exceptional schools, including three elementary schools (Willard, Thoreau, and Alcott) and one middle school (Concord Middle). These schools consistently demonstrate outstanding academic performance, with all of them ranking among the top schools in the state.

Concord Middle School stands out as a true standout, ranking 22nd out of 493 Massachusetts middle schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's impressive test scores, with over 70% of students proficient or better in ELA, Math, and Science across all grades, coupled with its low student-teacher ratio of 10.1, contribute to its exceptional academic environment. Similarly, Willard Elementary and Thoreau Elementary are also highly ranked, with both schools earning 5-star ratings and demonstrating consistently strong test scores.

The Concord schools' academic excellence is further supported by their high levels of funding, with spending per student ranging from $21,650 to $22,631 in the 2020-2021 school year. This investment in education, combined with the district's focus on small class sizes and personalized attention, has resulted in a well-rounded and high-quality educational system that is preparing students for success.
