Granby

The Granby school district in Massachusetts consists of two schools: East Meadow Elementary School and Granby Junior Senior High School. While both schools have room for improvement, Granby Junior Senior High School stands out with a higher 3-star rating, stronger graduation rates, and better performance on 10th-grade MCAS assessments compared to the state average.

Granby Junior Senior High School ranks 164 out of 348 Massachusetts high schools and maintains an impressive 94.8% four-year graduation rate with a relatively low 3.4% dropout rate. The school also outperforms the state average on 10th-grade MCAS assessments in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, East Meadow Elementary School ranks 566 out of 916 Massachusetts elementary schools, but it does demonstrate higher-than-district and state-level proficiency rates in 6th-grade MCAS English Language Arts and Science.

Both schools spend more per student and have lower student-teacher ratios compared to state averages, which may contribute to their performance. However, the schools generally perform below the state average on MCAS assessments, suggesting opportunities for improvement in curriculum, instruction, and targeted interventions. The district may also benefit from initiatives to promote greater diversity and inclusion, as the student populations at both schools are predominantly White.
