Dracut

Summary:

The Dracut school district in Massachusetts consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 211 out of 351 in Massachusetts and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Among the standout schools in the district, Greenmont Avenue Elementary and George H. Englesby Elementary perform exceptionally well, with high proficiency rates on MCAS tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In contrast, the Justus C. Richardson Middle School and Dracut Senior High have lower proficiency rates, particularly in Science and Biology, which may impact the high school's competitiveness for college admissions.

The district's graduation rate of 88.5% at Dracut Senior High is slightly below the state average, while the dropout rate of 6.2% is higher. The schools also vary in their racial compositions, but the data does not provide information on free/reduced lunch rates, which would be valuable for understanding the socioeconomic factors influencing student performance across the district. Further analysis of these gaps and targeted strategies to support student success could help the Dracut school district improve its overall performance and provide equitable opportunities for all students.
