Dedham


Summary:

The Dedham school district in Massachusetts consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with Greenlodge Elementary and Riverdale Elementary standing out as the strongest performers on MCAS tests, while other schools, such as Avery and the middle school, have lower proficiency rates.

Dedham High School maintains a solid performance, with above-average MCAS proficiency rates, a high graduation rate, and a low dropout rate, indicating a level of stability and quality at the secondary level.
