Summary:
There is only one middle school located in Gloucester, Massachusetts - the Ralph B O'Maley Middle School. This school serves students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Gloucester school district.
The Ralph B O'Maley Middle School has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and is ranked 291 out of 493 Massachusetts middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year. Its academic performance, as measured by MCAS proficiency rates, is consistently below the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Proficiency rates have declined slightly from the previous school year. The school's student-teacher ratio is lower than the state average, and its per-student spending is higher, suggesting that resource allocation may not be effectively translating into stronger academic outcomes.
While the school's ranking and rating have remained relatively stable over the past 3 years, the data analysis highlights the need for the Ralph B O'Maley Middle School to address its academic performance challenges, particularly in core subject areas. The school may also benefit from examining its strategies to promote more equitable educational outcomes for its diverse student population.
